Editorial Reviews

L.A. Theatre Works’ “radio theater” production of Ibsen’s classic play about environmental contamination, science, dissent, and hypocrisy offers a well-rounded audio theater experience. Very little in Ibsen’s original work requires theatrical action, and, when it does, the LATW cast—including Richard Kind, Rosalind Ayres, Gregory Harrison, and Josh Stamberg—and the production team do an excellent job of conveying it through sound. Like most dramatic works, the two-hour play is best enjoyed in one or two sittings. Ibsen’s themes remain relevant, almost prescient, nearly a century and a half after he wrote this play.
