West Coast PremiereHENRIK IBSEN’S
AN ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE
Adaptation by Thomas Ostermeier & Florian Borchmeyer
Directed by Kenneth Kelleher
February 5 - March 2, 2025
Dr. Thomas Stockmann discovers that the water in his town’s therapeutic spa is contaminated. The polluted spa has created prosperity for the town but is also making people sick. The play examines how a scientific expert becomes “an enemy of the people” when he threatens to expose an ecological human disaster. Will he be silenced by those who seek to protect their personal financial gains? Thomas Ostermeier’s scorching adaptation successfully pulls Ibsen’s play out of a small Norwegian town in 1882 and into a modern day global theatrical debate about corruption, climate emergency, and inequality.
