First
Macao production of this 122-year-old classic drama.
Ghosts explores social issues and is heavily critical
of the social inequalities of the period. With its theme of destiny and karma,
the play has shades of classical Greek tragedy. In writing Ghosts,
Ibsen-sometimes referred to as “the father of modern theatre”-brought realism to
the stage, thereby laying the groundwork for realist theatre and later modern
works.
The present production is the result of an initiative by the
Macao Drama Association, which has brought together Macao’s drama enthusiasts in
producing the work. It has also invited the famous Chinese theatre director,
Wang Xiaoying to direct the play. Ghosts promises to be a theatre event
like no other seen in Macao in recent years!
