The volume reveals an astonishing richness in the theatrical approaches to Ibsen across the world: it considers political theatre; institutional high art; theatre for development; queer and transgender theatre; Brechtian techniques; puppetry; post-dramatic theatre; rural village performance and avant-garde touring companies. Investigating varied renegotiations of his drama; including the work of Thomas Ostermeier in Germany and other parts of the world; versions of A Dolls House from Chile and China; The Wild Duck in Iran and productions of Peer Gynt in Zimbabwe and Egypt; Frode Helland provides a deeper understanding of a cross-cultural Ibsen. The volume gives an in-depth analysis of the practice of Ibsen in relation to political; social; ideological and economic forces within and outside of the performances themselves; and demonstrates the incredible diversity of his work in local situations.
