Nikki Amuka Bird, recently seen in Zadie Smith’s Bafta nominated NW, returns to the stage as Ellida in this taut and atmospheric production of the Henrik Ibsen play.

Ellida, the lighthouse-keeper’s daughter, is trapped in her marriage and longs for the sea. When a former lover returns from years of absence, she is forced to decide between freedom and the new life she has made for herself.

This stirring play about obligation and self determination is deftly directed by Kwame Kwei-Armah, who recent successes include the highly acclaimed and Olivier Award-nominated One Night in Miami….
