Do you know what I believe in? I believe in us. Me and you, right here. This town was once an incredible place. We have to have courage to fight for it again. Hero or enemy? Who can actually tell the difference? Everything is going to be fine, better than fine, in fact there's nothing that can't be achieved if everyone just believes a little. That's what the town's MP, Mick, thinks. He's optimistic, positively boosterish about his plan for the town. He just wants the naysayers to pipe down. But there's a problem. His sister, Dr Rhiannon Powell, has discovered that the project appears to be polluting the town's water supply. Mick sold the town a story about the future, but what will happen when reality looks to tear that story apart? Is Mick a hero of the people, or is he in fact their enemy? Brad Birch's bold new reimagining of Ibsen's An Enemy of the People pits the personal against the political and facts against emotion. A Hero of the People is a gripping contemporary drama for our times.

Über den Autor Henrik Ibsen

Henrik Ibsen (20.3.1828 Skien - 23.5.1906 Christiana) war ein norwegischer Dramatiker und Lyriker. Schon als Jugendlicher verfasste er seine ersten Liebesgedichte. Als Dramatiker feierte Ibsen seinen Durchbruch als Hausdichter und künstlerischer Leiter am norwegischen Nationaltheater. In dieser Zeit entstand u.a. »Die Johannisnacht« (1853). Zu Ibsens größten Dramen, die weltweit inszeniert und adaptiert werden, gehört »Stützen der Gesellschaft« (1877), das den Beginn einer neuen dramatischen Gattung, des naturalistischen Gesellschaftsdramas, darstellt.
