An Enemy of The People

16th May - 24th May 2025
Synopsis In this reimagined version of Ibsen's play, the story centres around Dr Teresa Stockmann, a passionate and dedicated medical officer for her town's spa baths. After discovering that the famed spa, which attracts tourists and supports the local economy, is contaminated, she believes it is her duty to reveal the truth to the community. Initially celebrated for her findings, Teresa soon faces fierce opposition from her brother the mayor, and other influential townsfolk who put money ahead of public health. As she champions the cause of transparency and the well-being of her community Teresa grapples with the personal cost of fighting for her convictions. Rebecca Lenkiewicz's adaptation brilliantly drives themes of female empowerment, resilience, and the challenges of speaking truth to power as well as the moral complexities of standing up for what is right, even when it means standing alone. This play contains very strong language.
