An election looming. A country on the brink. A rabid press baying for blood. At the centre of the storm stands John Rosmer, the heir to an influential family dynasty. Enter the mysterious Rebecca West, bringing the winds of change to Rosmersholm with the force of a hurricane. As secrets unravel and loyalties shift, the very foundations of power tremble, and the fate of a nation hangs in the balance.

Though rarely produced, “Ibsen’s masterpiece” (Michael Billington, 2008) remains an essential work.

The cast includes Virgilia Griffith (Queen Goneril) as Rebecca West, Jonathon Young (Betroffenheit) as John Rosmer, Ben Carlson (Stratford, Shaw) as Andreas Kroll, and Diego Matamoros (Soulpepper) as Ulrik Brendel.

Duncan Macmillan is an acclaimed English playwright renowned for such plays as Lungs, People Places and Things, and Every Brilliant Thing. Chris Abraham is the Artistic Director of Crow’s Theatre.
