When We Dead Awaken is the last play Ibsen wrote before his death in 1906, and one of his most haunting, breathtaking and personal pieces. Set within a mythical Nordic landscape, Mike Poulton's radical adaptation, Judgement Day, is a heartfelt and restless exploration of what it means to love and to be loved.
Henrik Ibsen
Henrik Ibsen (1828-1906) has been described as 'the father of modern theatre'. Most of his early plays were traditional historical dramas. After 'Peer Gynt', a fairy-tale fantasy in verse, Ibsen wrote the rest of his plays in prose, and came to be regarded as the great Naturalist dramatist.
