allen theatre at ACT | 700 union st

The Tony Award-winning adaptation comes to Seattle! Amy Herzog’s “smart, sharp, and relevant” (Deadline) take on this Henrik Ibsen timeless classic wraps us deep in an entangled web of truth, power and complacency. Dr. Stockmann has it all – but when he uncovers a catastrophe in the making that threatens lives, he runs up against those in power. As tensions rise, Stockmann must choose: follow his conscience, and risk destruction? Or join the conspiracy?
