Since the death of her charismatic but abusive husband, Helene Alving (Rabe) has been treading water in a sea of empty days. What keeps her going is a deeply held belief that salvation can only lie in telling her son Oswald the truth about his father. But when Oswald returns after living as an artist in France, he has his own truth to reveal: he is already living the consequences of his father"s life"¦
Ibsen"s Ghosts is an indictment of the middle class; it shocked critics and was banned in European theatres when it debuted in 1882. Ghosts critiques of religion, the patriarchy, class, free love, prostitution, hypocrisy, heredity, incest and euthanasia still powerfully resonate today. It chronicles a family locked into a destructive cycle of physical and spiritual inheritance, and in fatally repeating the patterns of the past. Pamela Rabe stars as a woman determined to free herself from "dead ideas, dead customs, dead morals".
