Donmar Associate Kwame Kwei-Armah directs Ibsen's moving play about duty and self-determination

Ellida, the lighthouse-keeper's daughter, is trapped in her marriage and longs for the sea. When a former lover returns from years of absence, she is forced to decide between freedom and the new life she has made for herself.

A new version of the Ibsen play by Elinor Cook.

Nikki Amuka-Bird returns to the Donmar as Ellida, following her recent BAFTA Television Award nomination for Zadie Smith's NW.
