Wild Duck/John Gabriel Borkman (Trans. Peter Hall/Inga-Stina Ewbank)

Two stunning interpretations. Borkman, a visionary banker and convicted embezzler, is obsessed with the power and glory of wealth. In The Wild Duck, Ibsen peels away fragile layers of the Ekdal family's world to reveal underlying tragedy. This version of John Gabriel Borkman was produced to great acclaim at the Royal National Theatre in 1997.
