 Most families have their dramas. This drama has one hell of a family.
October will see State Theatre Company present Ghosts, one of Henrik Ibsen’s (Hedda Gabler, A Doll’s House) most powerful plays, with an adaptation of the original text by writer Nicki Bloom.
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…
Ghosts is a provincial tragedy, the tale of a world where outer horizons are minute and inner ones infinite, a fatalistic drama for the new age, one in which biology and psychology take over the role of the gods.
Ghosts is directed by State Theatre Company Associate Director Geordie Brookman, and stars Alice Darling, Heather Mitchell, Nathan O’Keefe, Christopher Pitman and Brendan Rock.
