This is an 1866 play by Henrik Ibsen, one of Norway’s most famous playwrights. The play tells the story of a priest named Brand who is driven by his strict moral code to push his congregation to the brink of disaster. The play is a metaphor for the tension between individualism and societal norms, a theme that runs through much of Ibsen’s work.
