Details

Marianne hasn't seen her ex-husband Johan in 30 years. Johan's son Henrik owes him money that he will never be able to pay back. Henrik's daughter Karin is a talented cellist - more talented than he ever was - who looks more like her late mother with every passing day. Bergman's masterpiece, by turns funny and moving, expertly weaves love and conflict; the tragedy of growing old and the need to let go. Saraband is underscored by Bach's beautiful suites for cello from which the play draws its name.
