Ghosts

Drama Classics: The World's Great Plays at a Great Little Price

When her son, Oswald, comes back from Paris, Mrs Alving feels the ghosts of her past life returning to haunt them.

Henrik Ibsen's play Ghosts was first staged in 1882 in Chicago, Illinois, in a production by a Danish company on tour. The play was first performed in Sweden at Helsingborg in August 1883.

This English version of the play, in the Nick Hern Books Drama Classics series, is translated and introduced by Stephen Mulrine.
