About Ghosts
Haunted by the ugly truth of her deceased husband’s dark legacy, Helene is determined to forget her past and start a new future. Unaware of the true nature of his father's character, Osvald, her son, returns home to confront an uncertain future. However, as the flame of a forbidden romance threatens to shatter Helene's aspirations of creating a facade of a happy family, and she finds herself compelled to make a choice that could consume her own existence and jeopardise the remnants of her son's life.
The creatives of Ghosts
Director Joe Hill-Gibbins (The Marriage of Figaro, ENO; The Tragedy of King Richard the Second, Almeida), makes his Globe debut, with a new adaptation of the first modern tragedy to hit the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse, almost 150 years after it first caused a stir with its depiction of incest, infection, and euthanasia.
