She's gone from playing a maid-love interest in Netflix's Bridgerton to doing The Maids onstage. That's right, Bridgerton season four star Yerin Ha will be coming to Brooklyn to perform in a new production of Jean Genet's classic The Maids, May 17–June 14.

At the helm will be Kip Williams, whose Dracula is currently playing in the West End starring Cynthia Erivo; Williams previously directed Sarah Snook on Broadway in The Picture of Dorian Gray. Genet's comedy, about two maids who act out their darkest fantasies about their employer while their mistress is away, is set in the modern day, with the actors using smartphones onstage.

Ha will play Madame, the mistress, while Phia Saban (House of the Dragon) and Olivier Award nominee Lydia Wilson will play the maids, Solange and Claire. The production originated at the Donmar Warehouse in London, where it ran to positive reviews last year. The same cast is reprising their performance here.

Said Williams in a statement, the staging comes in a moment when people “are living a large portion of their lives online, interacting with each other in an unprecedented way in an abstract, virtual space, and expressing and performing ideas of self within the highly curated framework of that space. And this play is all about that act of performance, about that essential human experience of attempting to perform self for others, and the ways in which that act of performance can open up a chasm between fantasy and reality, between how we want to be seen and who we truly are.” Furthermore, he explains, “our unparalleled access to the lives of others is creating an exacerbated obsession with lives centred around materialism, youth, and beauty…Jean Genet, in the middle of the 20th century, had a somewhat prophetic view of how a society that was obsessed with materialism might unravel, and, unfortunately, he was correct.”
