Description

Ghosts by Joe Hill-Gibbins and Henrik Ibsen is a scandalous exploration of family secrets and forbidden desire. Nearly 150 years after its premiere, this adaptation brings to life the first modern tragedy, which caused a furore with its depiction of incest, infection, and euthanasia. The story follows Helene, who vows to erase her past and start again, but is forced to make a decision that threatens to engulf what's left of her - and her son's - life completely. As she navigates the complexities of family relationships, an illicit romance stands to ruin her plans for a happy family. This edition was published to coincide with the world premiere at The Globe's Sam Wanamaker Playhouse in November 2023, marking Joe Hill-Gibbins' Globe debut as adaptor and director.
