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. This updated adaptation brings Ibsen's scathing commentary of morality into the 1920s aristocracy.

i have accidentally clicked on the above 'star meter', and site has registered it as a 2 star vote and brought the average rating down. previously there was one 3 star vote. i would like my vote to be discounted please. if it could be removed from the site, then that would be wonderful; the people who have worked so hard to put on such a challenging play should not be penalised by an accidental click. thank you ED: SORTED
