“PEER GYNT” follows the life and adventures of one of Europe’s great liars on a surreal and thrilling ride, following the impulsive fantasist as he rises from rural poverty to obscene wealth and power. Peer Gynt, the title character, is a philanderer, a dreamer and a rogue. He wants to make his fortune and establish his identity.

But while his fortune is made off the literal backs of others, Peer must ultimately grapple with the profound emptiness and haunting guilt of his choices, and the moral reckoning they demand. This modern adaptation by Brad Birch of the Ibsen classic explores Western exploitation, the migrant crisis, identity and redemption in an urgent and epic night at the theatre.
