Julia Gibson and Reg Rogers join Marin Hinkle in the cast of the upcoming Craig Lucas adaptation of Miss Julie at Off-Broadway’s Rattlestick Theatre.

The new take on August Strindberg’s classic is set to play May 11-June 9 at the downtown stage with an opening scheduled for May 19. Anders Cato directs.

In Miss Julie, a flirtation between a young aristocratic woman and her father’s servant becomes more than the lady bargained for in the psycho-sexual drama filled with obsession, ambition and manipulation.

Gibson — who recently directed Bliss at the Rattlestick served as standby for the recent Broadway revival of ‘night, Mother. She has appeared in The Exonerated national tour, Stealing Sweets and Punching People (Summer Play Festival) and The Public’s Shakespeare in the Park stagings of Measure for Measure and Henry VIII.

Rogers has performed on Broadway in The Molière Comedies, Holiday, Proposals and Off-Broadway in The Dazzle, Unwrap Your Candy, Lobster Alice, Look Back in Anger, Cellini and Four Dogs and a Bone.

Hinkle — known to television audiences for her turns in “Two and a Half Men” and “Once and Again” — has appeared on Broadway in A Thousand Clowns, Electra and The Tempest. Other credits include Tony Kushner’s adaptation of A Dybbuk (NYSF), The Fourth Sister (Vineyard Theatre), Sabina (Primary Stages), Blue Window and the world premiere of Neil Simon’s Rose and Walsh (Geffen Playhouse).
