An Enemy of the People

Mar 10 – Apr 15, 2018

2 hours and 20 minutes including one intermission


Robert Falls’ new production of Ibsen’s timely classic.

When a water contamination crisis puts their community in peril, two brothers face off in a battle of political ambitions and moral integrity. Nearly 150 years after Ibsen’s masterpiece first thrilled audiences, it “is startling how current the play’s ideas feel” (The New York Times) and remains “a play so necessary, exhilarating to experience” (The Village Voice).
