A guitar-playing young revolutionary poet struggles with the consequences of falling in love. Students, poets, politicians and pastors meet and mix in the house of Mrs Halm and her daughters, where among the teacups and the music, love and marriage, feminism, heroism and youthful ideals fight for their place in the future. A new translation of Ibsen's bittersweet comedy written in 1862, in which a guitar-playing young revolutionary poet struggles with the mixed emotions and consequences of falling in love.
