‘Now I see that love is selfish. It makes you a country of two. At war with the rest of the world.’
Ian Rickson directs Tom Burke, Hayley Atwell and Giles Terera in the West End premiere of Duncan Macmillan‘s startling new adaptation of Henrik Ibsen’s gripping and piercingly relevant work of personal and political passion Rosmersholm.
An election looming. A country on the brink. A rabid press baying for blood. At the centre of the storm stands Rosmer’s home, the grand house of an influential dynasty. This is where the future will be decided by John Rosmer – a man torn between the idealised hope of the future and the ghosts of his past.
‘Ibsen’s masterpiece’ (Michael Billington, 2008) is a twisting thriller and stars two electrifying actors in the leading roles. Tom Burke (Strike, The Musketeers) is the soulful Rosmer haunted by history and tradition. Hayley Atwell (Howards End, Captain America) is Rebecca West, one of Ibsen’s greatest heroines. Enigmatic and unpredictable, free-spirited Rebecca brings the winds of change to Rosmersholm with the force of a hurricane. Giles Terera (Hamilton, West End) is Andreas Kroll, a powerful moral voice, who struggles to reconcile his friendship to Rosmer amidst the changing political tides.
Cast also includes Lucy Briers (Wolf Hall, West End/Broadway and The Seagull, Chichester Festival Theatre), Jake Fairbrother (Lady from the Sea, Donmar Warehouse and The Maids, HOME Manchester) and Peter Wight (The Birthday Party, West End and Hamlet, Almeida/West End).
Rosmersholm is the tenth collaboration between Sonia Friedman Productions and director Ian Rickson (including The Birthday Party, Mojo, Old Times, Betrayal, Jerusalem) and marks a second time working with award-winning writer and director Duncan Macmillan, who previously collaborated with Sonia Friedman Productions on the West End and Broadway run of 1984, which he co-adapted/co-directed with Robert Icke. His other plays include People Places and Things which enjoyed huge success in London and New York.

What a fabulous theatre experience! The theatre is cozy and beautiful, the play and cast are outstanding.
It was a fantastic production.I am so glad I made the effort to travel to London from Coventry to see it. AND I persuaded a friend to come too and she loved it.I purchased direct from box office and collected in person.
Loved the show!
Rosmersholm is a fine play, full of complexities of inter and intrapersonal struggles as well as social commentary. It was given a workmanlike treatment, with nothing glaringly wrong, but I never lost the sense that these were actors, acting. The fine moral and philosophical stresses between the couple and within their own souls needs to be fully inhabited so as to be believable, to put us on the edge of our seats. A bit more Method to the current style of acting would be welcome. The producer must bear a big part of the responsibility for the feeling that we were close to something great, but never experiencing it.
An enjoyable intellectual workout. Perhaps the new adaptation misses some of the subtleties of the original, but the power of the performances are undeniable.
Disappointed with the lack of programmes, otherwise top quality entertainment
Excellent play - exceptional value at ticket price offered by this site for this performance
Outstanding performance. Actors were exceptional.
great play, excellent cast
This was the one Ibsen play I hadn't seen before; it proved as powerful & thought-provoking as his other works. Excellent production & top class acting all round. The translation/adaptation brought out contemporary relevance.
As advertised, a story for our times.
Great play -- thanks to Ibsen. Great production -- thanks to making it topical for 2019 in Brexit Britain.

London Theatre Review: Rosmersholm at the Duke of York's Theatre
Scandinavian noir (or Nordic noir) is proving to be increasingly more popular as the years go by. Just look at the fairly recent Black Mirror episodes 'Hated In The Nation' and 'Crocodile', or at Icelandic actress Heida Reed in Stella Blómkvist. Now, a West End production of Rosmersholm by renowned Norwegian playwright, Henrik Ibsen, is making a splash at London's Duke of York's Theatre.
