United Players presents
ROSMERSHOLM
by Henrik Ibsen, a new version by Mike Poulton
Mar 31 - Apr 24 | thu - sun 8pm

Believed by many to be Ibsen’s dramatic masterpiece, Rosmersholm presents a portrait of idealism and democracy floundering in a society of conservatism and opportunism. Johannes Rosmer has resigned as parish priest following the death of his wife. But his increasingly liberal ideas make him an object of suspicion to the local worthies who also disapprove of the presence in his house of a much younger woman.  More background here.
