Ghosts

By Henrik Ibsen Directed by Stephen Lee For many years even to have a copy of this play in one's home was something akin to pornography. Contemporary critics were virulent in their attacks: ...An open drain: a loathsome sore unbandaged... Morbid, unhealthy and disgusting... Nauseating and menacing.... As foul and filthy a concoction as has ever been allowed to disgrace the boards of an English theatre.. The play examines a town's tribute to a prominent citizen, and his widow's attempts to come to terms with the real truth of the man's life. The present is constantly echoing to ghosts from the past ...the ripples, both emotional and physical that cannot be escaped....most vividly in the life-threatening disease that has been passed on to his son. A moving and challenging play that is still strongly relevant today With Angelique Malcolm, David Meadows, Graham Mitchell, Whitney Richards and Andrew Southern Preview: Wed 24 Oct, 7.30pm Season: 24 Oct to 3 Nov, 7.30pm Matinee: Sat 3 Nov, 2pm The Subiaco Arts Centre Studio 180 Hamersley Rd, Subiaco Bookings through Ticketek - 132 849
