Synopsis: | This production of A Doll House has the action reset from Christmas-time, in 19th century Oslo, to the Jewish holiday Purim, in present day New York. Nora, a modern Orthodox housewife, is hiding a secret from her banker husband Torvald. Like Queen Esther before her, she risks everything to protect those she loves. As the traditional gender roles are being challenged in the Orthodox world today, from Haredi female entrepreneurs supporting their husbands to the Rabbis of the Modern Orthodox community, can this A Doll House withstand the reverberations of a slamming door? | |||||

Synopsis: | the story of Nora, the delicate and over-protected wife of Torvald Helmer, who bravely walks away from her confined marriage in a quest for freedom and self-enlightenment, remains poignant and real for modern-day audiences. Naïvely, Nora has secretly borrowed money for her husband by forging her fathers signature. Krogstad, her creditor, has discovered her fraud and threatens to expose her in order to ruin Torvald. When Torvald finally finds out, Nora is appalled that he would protect his own reputation rather than support her. | |||||

Synopsis: | This version breathes new life into the supreme classic by Henrik Ibsen. Of course no one can improve Ibsen's original story of Nora Helmer, living an unexamined life of domestic comfort but being ruled by her husband, Torvald. The foundation of everything she has believed in is put to the test when she is unable to pay back a loan she made in secret to save her husband's life. She has to contrive ways to pay back the money, for if a solicitor reveals her secrets, the household will be torn apart. Rather than stiff and stodgy dialogue from other translations of the 19th century Norwegian original, the vernacular here fits today's audiences. Nora is more carefree, Torvald more sweetly condescending. We identify with them quickly, and that helps us accept the antiquated mores Nora must strive to live under. | |||||

Synopsis: | Blackmail and innocence, love and hypocrisy, honour and betrayal collide in one of the most groundbreaking and celebrated plays in theatre history. Nora thought she had the perfect life until a ghost from the past returns. Forced to confront reality, she recognises that she is little more than Torvald, her husband's plaything, trapped by convention within a suffocating marriage. Her decision to slam the door on being a wife and mother and empower herself, is one of the iconic moments of modern drama. In 1879, Ibsen's A Doll's House stunned the world and provoked outrage. One critic compared it to the 'dropping of a bomb into contemporary life'. | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Henrik Ibsen | |||||
Henrik Ibsen's A Doll's House premiered in 1879 in Copenhagen, the second in a series of realist plays by Ibsen, and immediately provoked controversy with its apparently feminist message and exposure of the hypocrisy of Victorian middle-class marriage. In Ibsen's play, Nora Helmer has secretly (and deceptively) borrowed a large sum of money to pay for her husband, Torvald, to recover from illness on a sabbatical in Italy. Torvald's perception of Nora is of a silly, naive spendthrift, so it is only when the truth begins to emerge, and Torvald appreciates the initiative behind his wife, that unmendable cracks appear in their marriage. | ||||||

Synopsis: | Faithful to Ibsen's original setting, this new version of A Doll's House takes place in the centre of Norway's capital on Christmas Eve, 1879. Nora, an excitable young housewife, makes her last minute preparations under the Christmas tree. This towering symbol of Christianity is the perfect find; and a resplendent finishing touch to Nora's idyllic picture of family life. Nora knows full well however, that the tree is diseased, and it casts a macabre shadow over the household as the needles slowly drop...As with many of Nora's well-meant but not entirely lawful machinations, the truth begins to creep into her husband's narrow field of vision. Frantically she attempts to clean up, but becomes lost in an onslaught of blackmail and pine needles. The one thing that her husband cannot stand begins to unfold; a huge and insoluble mess. | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Henrik Ibsen | |||||
Translator Johnston points out that this 2-part, 10-act historical drama is a transitional work for Ibsen. Before it, his plays were histories, fantasies, and beefed-up folktales; after it, he wrote his great realist dramas, 12 in all, from Pillars of Society (1877) to When We Dead Awaken (1899). For that reason alone, Ibsen's seldom-produced, gargantuan masterpiece is worth reading, and Johnston's clear, contemporary translation makes it all the more so. The vast play focuses on Roman emperor Julian's rise to power and his misbegotten attempts to roll back the clock and return the increasingly Christian eastern half of the empire to its former pagan glory. But the Christians were inspired, determined, and driven. The pagans were not. As Ibsen demonstrates, Julian's motives were pure, and his critique of the early Christians, especially their hypocrisy and contentiousness over every small point of dogma, was sound. Why Ibsen found Julian's story relevant in 1873 remains a question--for scholars, however. Meanwhile, Johnston's beautiful English rendering of it compels our attention today. Jack Helbig | ||||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Henrik Ibsen. Combines Ibsen's two plays, Julian the Apostate and Emperor Julian and is based on literal translations by Anne-Marie Stanton-Ife and marie Wells | |||||
Made Emperor, Julian attemps to abolish Christianity and restore the old gods. But met with fierce resistance, this great free-thinker becomes a tyrant more hated than his brutal predecessor Constantius. And in arousing the Christians from their apathy he advances their cause, his life and death altering the course of history in stark opposition to his intent. Ibsen's little-known masterpiece sweeps across Greece and the Middle East from AD351, covering twelve crucial years in the history of civilisation. | ||||||

Synopsis: | A small Norwegian town has just begun to win fame and wealth through its medicinal spring waters. Dr Stockmann, resident physician in charge, discovers that the waters are poisoned. On receiving proof of this, he immediately reports to his associates, the town officials most immediately affected. The Doctor is shocked to find that instead of being thanked, he is looked upon as a dangerous crank, motivated by a desire to prove that his fellow townsmen are wrong, and to bring ruin upon them. As the people who run the local paper and the town officials (among them close relatives and friends of the Doctor) do their utmost to urge secrecy and compromise, the determined Doctor realizes that the honesty and idealism he has counted upon to make the truth prevail, simply do not exist in the face of selfish "practical" interests. The press will not report his findings; the officials refuse to give him a hearing; he loses his position and the townspeople boycott him and ultimately his wife and children are cut off from all contact with friends and neighbors. Almost every weapon of offense and abuse is brought to bear against the family - blackmail, slander, and eviction from their home. But all the time the Doctor, morally supported by his family, carries on his magnificent fight for the truth. At the end the townspeople, gathered outside the home which the Stockmanns must soon leave, cast stones through the windows. Stockmann addresses his family: "But remember now, everybody, you are fighting for the truth and that is why you're alone. And that makes you strong" | |||||

Synopsis: | This American adaptation retains the 1880s period of Ibsen's masterpiece but moves the action from a small town on Norway's coast to Chicago on Lake Michigan's shore. The potential boom of increased tourism remains as does the looming threat to the environment. These pit two brothers against each other: The mayor who leads the city and the physician who discovers the threat to its well-being struggle against each other to win their community's support. Which is more important: immediate economic growth or long-term health, which can only be assured through huge public expenditures? Ibsen's epic battle plays out against the shifting allegiance of the media. In a metropolis filled with immigrants from diverse backgrounds, An Enemy of the People becomes an uneasy exploration of democracy itself. What does it mean when the majority rules even if it is wrong? | |||||

Synopsis: | On the face of it, local councillor Helen Alving's financial support for the creation of a Childhood Trust and the donation of her 'big house' to the Council to create a new looked-after children's facility seems to be a magnanimously benevolent gesture to honour her late husband, the Captain. With the unexpected arrival of her son Oswald 'from abroad' however, Helen's carefully constructed reality is torn apart, and the ghosts from their tormented past manifest grotesquely in shocking revelations of political corruption and abuse. Megan Barker's dark and gripping adaptation of the Ibsen classic exposes a litany of terrible secrets and the incontrovertible damage these have caused. | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Henrik Ibsen. Ghosts was first published in 1881 but looks At issues which Are As relevant now As when Ibsen wrote the play. The play has been made even more relevant to A modern Audience by this Adaptation of Ghosts by Australian playwright Nicki Bloom. Ghosts was controversial when it was first performed And published one critic described it As open sewer. Its power comes from raising issues which do exist but which people do not want to deal with : they become ghosts. | |||||
Synopsis: | Mrs Alving is preparing for the opening of an orphanage in memory of her late husband. Her son's return to the family home brings with it echoes of the past she is desperate to forget. Slowly, mercilessly, inexorably, Ibsen strips bare the secrets and lies of an isolated country town as the play dramatises one woman?s battle with the conservative conventions of bourgeois society, where an individual's right to free thought is seen as anarchic and dangerous. | |||||

Synopsis: | Extant Arts presents Ghosts, a retelling of Henrik Ibsen's groundbreaking drama through Nemonie Craven's bold and muscular new adaptation (commissioned especially for this production). Director Sophie Hunter leads a dynamic cast and an international award-winning creative team from the worlds of opera, Broadway, film, and installation art in transforming this 19th-century Norwegian classic into a timeless and searing piece of theatre. Ghosts is a play of threatening, disturbing energies which unfolds on the eve of the tenth anniversary of the death of respected public benefactor John Alving. In welcoming back to the family home her estranged son Oswald and her former Pastor, Helene Alving must confront the ghosts that continue, fatally, to determine her existence and that of others. Ghosts provides the template for all modern horror films concerned with the bourgeois family under threat, from Stanley Kubrick to Michael Haneke. | |||||

Since the death of her charismatic but abusive husband, Helene Alving has been treading water in a sea of empty days. What keeps her going is a deeply held belief that salvation can only lie in telling her son Osvald the truth about his father. But when Osvald returns after living as an artist in France, he has his own truth to reveal: he is already living the consequences of his fathers life. . .Ghosts outraged critics and thrilled audiences when it first premiered in 1882. Over a century later, Henrik Ibsens controversial masterpiece, adapted specially for Belvoir by Eamon Flack, remains just as riveting and radical. | ||||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Henrik Ibsen | |||||
While McGuinness retains the Norwegian fjord setting, the Anglo-Irish inflection of his dialogue brings the tension between morality, integrity and religion closer to home. Robert Bowman's production for Bristol Old Vic is a mix of the compelling and the overcooked, sometimes tending towards melodrama but at its best burning with a suppressed, white-hot rage. Sian Thomas is Mrs Alving, the widow of a captain whose secret life of debauchery poisoned the family's outwardly respectable domesticity. Buttoned up to the throat in a tight, dark gown, Thomas vibrates with hskation and fear, disgusted by her own collusion in maintaining a lie, but desperate to keep her son, Oswald, free from the taint she dreads may be passed down from father to son. Anger boils all around her. The pale, sweaty, syphilitic Oswald seems diseased with a toxic hatred for his inadequate parents, worsened by his initial inability to comprehend entirely his own feelings. When he begs Mrs Alving to perform a mercy killing should his suffering become too acute, his greatest horror is that his illness should reduce him to a baby, once again putting him wholly under the control of a mother who, for all her smothering, guilt-ridden devotion, has failed him. There's another problematic parent-child relationship, between the lame, drunkard carpenter Engstrand and his supposed daughter, Mrs Alving's maid Regine. Regine regards Engstrand as a kind of devil, and his mined foot in its clumsy built-up shoe as a cloven hoof; his plans for her future are devious and morally dubious. Yet he suggests a father who genuinely seeks contentment, albeit of a warped kind, with his cruelly contemptuous child. The tears that fill his eyes when the ambitious Regine rejects him are moving but also richly ironic: she is not, in fact, his daughter, but the illegitimate offspring of dead Alving. | ||||||

Classic drama about a woman's struggle against prejudice and fear written in 1881. On her country estate, Mrs Alving is building an orphanage in memory of her dead husband. As her son Oswald, a successful artist living in Paris, returns home and the Pastor arrives to dedicate the orphanage, it seems she can finally bury the painful memories of her past. But over the course of one day, the dark secrets and unresolved tensions of the past are brutally exposed. The strange and complex relationships that bind Mrs Alving and her son to their maid Regina, her father Engstrand and to the priest Manders come to light - and we discover the shocking truth about her dead husband. | ||||||

Synopsis: | Ghosts is the play that Ibsen said he had to write after A Doll's House; Nora in the earlier play walked out on her husband and children to have a life of her own, but Mrs Alving in this play went back to her hard-drinking and womanising husband and covered up his faults to her son and to the world to the extent of building a children's home in his name after his death, which is the point in their story where the play commences. Pastor Manders, to whom Mrs Alving ran for guidance all those years ago when she left her husband and who reminded her of her duty to the man she married, has arrived to help with the opening of the children's home. Mrs Alving's son Oswald, an artist who has been living in Paris, also returns home for the ceremony - his mother sent him away when he was younger to be away from his father and kept the myth of Alving's greatness alive in her letters to him. Oswald has an eye for the maid Regina, whose dissolute father Jacob Engstrand wants to leave Mrs Alving's household to help him run a home for sailors, but there are reasons why Mrs Alving can never let Oswald and Regina get together and also why Regina would not want to end up with her wealthy employer's son; the sins of the father are visited on his children. This 1881 play, pilloried in its day for its immorality in its debate of unmarried couples living 'in sin' and having children as well as incest and venereal disease, works in a very different way in the current world to how it would have in the society from which it arose. Common opinion would have been more aligned with Pastor Manders's rigid morality of duty of a wife to her husband and a child to its parents and of the sanctity of marriage, all of which is stripped apart by subsequent events and revelations. Now, Manders comes across as someone with shockingly old-fashioned and prejudiced views; 'common sense' over time has become the anomaly. | |||||

Helen Alving spent years creating the illusion of a happy marriage to a successful, charming man. Long after his death, she is still trapped by the emotional after-effects of the truth - that he was a serial adulterer and a reckless alcoholic. Stifled by obligations and expectations, Helen resolves to exorcise the ghosts of the past and free herself from the regrets that haunt her. But when her artist son Oswald returns home, it becomes clear that he has already paid the price for his father's past. Some legacies are impossible to escape. Some ghosts can never be laid to rest. | ||||||

Synopsis: | In 1881 Ibsen rocked the literary and theatrical worlds with the publication of GHOSTS, a play so controversial in its time that even the head of Nya Teatern, one of Stockholm's major theatres, called it "one of the filthiest things ever written in Scandanavia." Once the uproar had died down, audiences proved far more receptive to GHOSTS than the literati had initially been, and while its dramatic subjects of promiscuity, incest and sexually transmitted disease no longer arouse the feverish denunciations of Ibsen's time, their treatment retains the power that has made the play a masterpiece of Western literature. In this crackling new translation, celebrated playwright Lanford Wilson has revivified GHOSTS for a new audience, and as we too continue to confront the specter of horrifying sexual disease, GHOSTS has never seemed more profoundly relevant. | |||||

In Lucy Kirkwood's version of Hedda Gabler, Ibsen's nineteenth-century heroine is relocated to present-day London, to startling effect. Hedda, still mourning for the father she adored, returns from honeymoon with a husband she doesn't love, to a flat and a pregnancy she doesn't want. Trapped by her past and terrified of her future, bored by her life but too cowardly to walk away from it, she finds herself caught between three men. and in the end, something has to give. . . | ||||||

Synopsis: | I've always loved "Hedda Gabler" but I've noticed in using it in the classroom that my college students have a hard time relating to the characters, especially Hedda, and to the world of the late 19th century Northern Europe. I told my wife the idea of doing a modern translation that young people could relate to yet remain faithful to Ibsen. She immediately agreed to work on the script with me. Pamela is an experienced psychologist and an award-winning dramatic writer who I knew could add insights into the psychology of Hedda and the other characters. We went back to the original 1890 first English translation of the play. We then changed the time period to the present and set it taking place in Shaker Heights, Ohio though it can be any city that has a college nearby. When we first started to adapt the play, we had hoped that we'd be able to stay completely faithful to Ibsen, but we soon realized if we were going to make our Hedda, a true modern woman today, more changes would have to be made. Through months of work and what we learned from the reading, we now have a 21st century "Hedda" that audiences and actors, especially college age students would love to perform and see. It's a Hedda that we both feel Ibsen would have approved. His story is just too great for us not to keep its great characters and situations. He truly was a master. | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Henrik Ibsen | |||||
Brian Friel's new version-taking liberties that only a master playwright might-invests Ibsen's social realist original with psychological realism, presenting the harridan's gradual mental breakdown as a physiological consequence of an entirely inflexible social milieu. Friel finds wry humour in historical hindsight; however, while the dated attitudes of Hedda's husband, lovers and lady companions provoke laughter from a contemporary audience, Hedda's final actions become an almost logical defense against a world that refuses her agency. Crucially, they still have the capacity to shock. -Irish Times. "[Brian Friel] has taken Ibsen's play and given it his own twist. His translation enlivens the dialogue between the characters, gives the play energy and brings out a wry and dark humour for a modern audience." -RTE.ie | ||||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Henrik Ibsen. From a translation by Csanad Z Siklos | |||||
Synopsis: | Less than forty-eight hours after returning from a luxurious honeymoon, the former Hedda Gabler, now Hedda Tesman, lies dead in the parlor of her new home, the victim of a self-inflicted gunshot to the head. Ibsen's terse masterpiece unflinchingly leads us to this shocking but inevitable conclusion. At the center of the play is one of the greatest roles in modern drama, the fascinating Hedda Gabler, who finds herself stranded in a seemingly ordinary but dangerously imbalanced domestic system. It includes her husband, the ambitious scholar George Tesman, his doting Aunt Julie and the powerful Judge Brack, who seems intent on playing a very large role in the young couple's life. Into this mix comes an old schoolmate of Hedda's, Thea Elvsted, who has courageously abandoned a loveless marriage in favor of the passionate partnership she has found with the troubled Eilert Lovborg, a brilliant thinker who is an academic rival of Tesman's and who shares an intense secret history with Hedda. Employing methods that virtually defined the modern psychological drama, Ibsen stealthily reveals the bitter conflicts and thwarted longings that lie just below the "civilized" transactions of daily life. | |||||

Synopsis: | A heroine. A victim. A villain. Hedda Gabler is all of these and more - a woman filled with a restless passion for life that cannot be satisfied by her marriage or her perfect home. Henrik Ibsen's towering classic will be given a sharp contemporary adaptation by Joanna Murray-Smith (The Female of the Species, Lovechild, Honour). Reared to take her place as a society hostess but without the means to support such a lifestyle after her father's death, Hedda is trapped in a loveless marriage and must live out her life according to a set of standards totally alien to her upbringing. As she strives to find a way to fulfil her desires, an old flame from the past reappears - the brilliant Lovborg whose prodigal talent serves to highlight the dull and plodding world of her husband. The connection cannot be resisted and leads to violent and tragic events even she could not have predicted or control. | |||||

Tesman, a historian who spent most of his honeymoon doing field work, is desperate for a University appointment so that he can continue to keep Hedda in the style to which she would prefer to become accustomed. Lovborg, who has thrown off the drink with great difficulty, has (with a lover and silent partner) written a fabulously successful treatise and is ready to introduce an even more significant work. Hedda, recognizing that her old lover is a threat to her new husband's prosperity, reintroduces Lovborg to the sauce, and after that the bad things happen. | |||||

This married life is not what Hedda Gabler signed up for. She is the daughter of a general; a gun-toting, horse-riding, party-throwing siren. Then, with one little ring on a finger, shes supposed to turn into the quiet, predictable wife of an academic. hen promises are broken, an old ame comes to town, blackmail and scandal are threatened and other, braver women start to occupy the limelight, Hedda has to decide: must she submit, settle down and knuckle under or is it possible to stand up, take control and tear it all down? Hedda Gabler is Henrik Ibsens masterpiece, possibly the greatest stage role ever written for an actress. This funny, shocking and powerful play opens up the desperation and absurdity of trying to live as a thing that you are not. | ||||||

Adapted from When We Dead Awaken, the last play Ibsen wrote before his death. First staged in 1899, it is rarely performed, yet is one of Ibsen's most extraordinary and deeply personal works. Whilst holidaying with his young wife, the sculptor Rubek encounters his muse: a woman that he loved and left a lifetime ago. Over a series of heated encounters, the entire scroll of Rubek's life is unrolled in Ibsen's final and most autobiographical exploration of what it means to love and be loved. Set within a mythical Nordic landscape, the play offers an explicit and merciless portrait of Ibsen as an ageing artist: restless with his art, his homeland and his married life. | ||||||

Synopsis: | Ellida, the Lighthouse Keeper's daughter, is homesick for the sea. Her life with her husband Dr Wangel and his daughters leaves her restless. Then, on a hot, brilliantly clear summer morning life changes...Ellida Wangel's mysterious seafaring lover has returned after many years to reclaim the woman to whom he believed himself to be betrothed. With piercing eyes he exerts a mesmerising hold over all whom he encounters. Yet, he is a man with a past, a murderer, a man of the sea. What is Ellida to do? Whom should she choose? The husband who loves her and is prepared to grant her freedom or the enigmatic man with whom she shares the same watery affinity. A man who holds a 'horrible unfathomable power' over her mind. Yet Ellida's mind is like the sea, it ebbs and flows and finally reaches its own firm conclusion. The Lady from the Sea (1888) represents an important turning point in Ibsen's work. Within a few days of its publication Edmund Gosse wrote 'There is thrown over the whole play a glamour of romance, of mystery, of landscape beauty...moreover, after so many tragedies, this is a comedy...the tone is quite unusually sunny, and without a tinge of pessimism.' This play explores the hypnotic hold one person may gain over another. It is an emphatic defence of individuality, of inner struggles faced with courage and integrity. | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Henrik Ibsen | |||||
Vote for chang e!Sick of the two established parties and their vested interests, one man promises a third option with a radical agenda: to champion the people and remake politics. But does The League of Youth herald a future fair for all, or the same old small-town corruption? And is Stensgaard a hero in the making or a man on the make? Switching his allegiances at the drop of a rosette, and caught up in a string of romantic affairs, Stensgaard rapidly comes unstuck. Before you can say 'hypocrisy', the people are questioning: whose side is he really on? Ibsen's political farce has long been praised for its sparkling wit and cynical humour. But The League of Youth is uncanny in the mirror it holds up to present-day Britain, where every promise leads to compromise in the rush to snatch a share of the power. | ||||||

An enthralling new version of an unforgettable Ibsen classic. Part psychological thriller, part Gothic tragedy, Ibsens late masterwork is a compelling portrait of one man's obsessive determination, and what might lie on the darker side of ambition. Halvard Solness, the leading architect of his age, is at the end of his career. A single-minded man of angry pride, trapped in a frozen marriage to Aline, he is terrified of being eclipsed by the younger generation snapping at his heels. A decade after their first meeting, the charismatic and bewitching young Hilde Wangel comes back into his life and inspires him to even greater heights. But will his last towering achievement renew him or destroy him? | ||||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Henrik Ibsen. Based on a literal translation by Torkil Heggstad | |||||
The change will come. And it's not far away, I promise you that. Some figure will emerge from the dark screaming 'Get out of the way'. And not far behind others will follow... The young are waiting. In all their power. Knocking on the door. The master builder Halvard Solness has a fear of falling. A self-made man, without professional qualifications, he has achieved domination in the town but he's increasingly frightened of being displaced by the young. A woman, Hilde Wangel, appears from the mountains, claiming to have known Solness ten years previously, and telling him of a promise he made to her when she thirteen. David Hare has written a new adaptation of one of Henrik Ibsen's most complex autobiographical masterpieces - a mesmeric exploration of control, power, lust and death, which builds to a vertiginous climax. | ||||||

Hilde Wangel, a vivacious young woman arrives unannounced. Hilde has idolized Solness for ten years, since in the early stages of his career, he built a large church in her hometown and heroically climbed to the top of the tower to celebrate its dedication. The architects presence had a profound effect on the young girl of 12 when he promised to return and, 'build her a kingdom'. Today, the ten years are up and Hilde has come to reap what he has sown. | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Henrik Ibsen. Translated by Gerry Bamman and Irene B Berman; adapted by Baltasar Kormakur | |||||
Synopsis: | On one level, it is easy to see that Baltasar Kormakur's National Theatre of Iceland production is principally a devised work. A mental-hospital scene, a cabal of blood-smeared plutocrats throwing handfuls of money into the air, a bunch of sunglassed thugs in black. . . These are ploys redolent of all too many productions that have no firm idea what they want to say but are determined to say it graphically. The first main difference is that in this case the company does have something to say: it has Ibsen's fantastical, notoriously unstageable five-hour verse play, in which protagonist Peer is at every moment torn between trying to be an individual and trying to be a human being. The second difference is that it works. | |||||

Synopsis: | On one level, it is easy to see that Baltasar Kormakur's National Theatre of Iceland production is principally a devised work. A mental-hospital scene, a cabal of blood-smeared plutocrats throwing handfuls of money into the air, a bunch of sunglassed thugs in black. . . These are ploys redolent of all too many productions that have no firm idea what they want to say but are determined to say it graphically. The first main difference is that in this case the company does have something to say: it has Ibsen's fantastical, notoriously unstageable five-hour verse play, in which protagonist Peer is at every moment torn between trying to be an individual and trying to be a human being. The second difference is that it works. | |||||

Synopsis: | Peer Gynt sweeps around the world in a fruitless search for power and glory - outwitting wedding guests, trolls and a belly dancing con-woman who are all intent on bringing him down. Eventually this comic rogue is redeemed by the love of a good woman. The last of Ibsen's verse dramas. Irina Brook, daughter of Peter Brook, first read Peer Gynt as a young actress living in New York in the 1980s. In a relationship at the time with Iggy Pop, she imagined Ibsen's eponymous hero as the boisterous rock star. Years later, her vision has been vividly realised in an adaptation featuring creative contributions from the legendary musician as well as new writing from Pulitzer Prize-winning Sam Shepard. Driven by a timeless hunger for fame and wealth, Peer remains a man on a desperate quest for his inner-self. His fantastical journey is wholly updated by this exuberant show rich in contemporary imagery, live music and original poetry. | |||||

Peer Gynt is a five-act play in verse by the Norwegian dramatist Henrik Ibsen, loosely based on the fairy tale Per Gynt. It is the most widely performed Norwegian play. According to Klaus Van Den Berg, the "cinematic script blends poetry with social satire and realistic scenes with surreal ones". Peer Gynt has also been described as the story of a life based on procrastination and avoidance. | ||||||

Synopsis: | Peer Gynt: The boy who never grew up, the escapologist extraordinaire. Rough Magic, who stormed the Festival last year with the remarkable Phaedra, has reunited with the author of their 2004 smash-hit Improbable Frequency, with this original new take on Ibsen's epic study of delusion, self-evasion and wild imaginings. Caught between his angel and his demon, haunted by the women he loved, lost and betrayed, and catapulted through a life built on fantasy, Peer Gynt is finally forced to face himself. Fast, funny and told with Rough Magic's trademark theatrical wit, this classic tale is reimagined in a spectacular and surreal interpretation with live music from the outstanding ensemble Tarab. Truly a story for our times. | |||||

Synopsis: | A portrait of idealism and democracy floundering in a society of conservatism and opportunism, considered by many to be Ibsen's dramatic masterpiece. Johannes Rosmer has resigned as parish priest following the suicide of his wife. But his increasingly liberal ideas make him an object of suspicion to the local worthies, who also disapprove of the presence in his house of a much younger woman, Rebecca West, formerly his wife's companion. As their relationship deepens and their isolation builds, the increasing moral pressures they face force them inexorably towards their fate. . . | |||||

Synopsis: | A fairy-tale comedy from one of the world's greatest playwrights, St John's Night receives its UK premiere at the award-winning Jermyn Street Theatre directed by Anthony Biggs. Ibsen's first publicly performed play, commissioned in 1851 by the eccentric violinist Ole Bull for the newly-established National Theatre in Bergen, is an enchanting tale of mischievous goblins, mismatched lovers and secret inheritances; loosely based on Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. Exploring themes of cultural inheritance, nationalism and the supernatural that appear more clearly defined in Ibsen's later realist cycle, St John's Night is a riotous and satirical comedy from a writer often associated with Nordic gloom. | |||||

Synopsis: | At the close of the first millennium, on the fringes of the Arctic Circle, an old lie has slept for years. When visitors from the past enter the twilight, winter world of Helgeland, the lie wakes with the fury of a great white bear - and havoc follows after. Firstborn Theatre are proud to present the lifetime premiere of Ibsen's tragic homage to his homeland. Woven from Scandinavian family sagas, and set in 10th century Norway, Helgeland fuses Shakespearean tragedy with domestic drama, wound around the confined, furious passions of Hjordis - Ibsen's earlier, wilder Hedda Gabler. This unique play fuses Ibsen's mastery of psychological detail and social critique with the bravado plot and larger-than-life characterizations you'd expect from an episode of Game of Thrones. | |||||
