More information about Ghosts
Henrik Ibsen is perhaps best known for Hedda Gabler and A Doll’s House, plays that are frequently revived on and off Broadway. But Ghosts is equally powerful if a bit lesser known, perhaps because of how banned it was after its premiere, speaking to its influence and controversial views. Ahead of his time, Ibsen was critiquing religion and the subjugated role of women in his plays, which, over a century later, still speak volumes.
Ghosts is an acclaimed work because of its addressing of such societal taboos, including euthanasia and incest. The play is a compelling thriller and a pushback against rigid morals. Audiences can expect a tightly crafted piece that keeps you on the edge of your seat and won’t let go until the final, incredible climax.
A celebrator of new works and big-budget revivals, Lincoln Center Theater combines that programming in this play: a classic work rewritten for a new audience.
