Ellida, ACT FIVE
＂The first play in which Ibsen entirely abandons social satire and devotes himself to pure psychology.＂
William Archer (1907)
Ibsen’s rarely performed play, THE LADY FROM THE SEA, was written just before HEDDA GABLER. It is a powerful expression of a woman’s search for her own identity, in a world where women are defined by who they are with, instead of who they are or who they could become.
Richard Nelson’s translation was commissioned and produced by Court Theatre in Chicago.
