'There are ghosts everywhere' | Ghosts (2023) | Act 2 Scene 7 | Henrik Ibsen | Shakespeare's Globe

Dive into the heart of Henrik Ibsen's 'Ghosts' with a scene that lays bare the complexities of love, loss, and hidden truths.

Helene Alving (Hattie Morahan, A Doll's House) confides in Father Manders (Paul Hilton, The Inheritance), pulling back the curtain on the less-than-rosy reality of her marriage to the late Captain Alving. Unveiling a traumatic past, this scene unfolds with hidden secrets resurfacing, creating a narrative filled with suspense and emotional depth.

Plagued by the ugly truth of her late husband’s legacy, Helene vows to erase the past and start again. See Hattie Morahan and Paul Hilton on stage in Ibsen's searing family drama, in the atmospheric candlelit Sam Wanamaker Playhouse.

Ghosts by Henrik Ibsen, adapted by Joe Hill-Gibbins, plays in our Sam Wanamaker Playhouse until 28 January 2024: bit.ly/GhostsGlobe
