Ellida Wangel, the lady from the sea, is a kindred spirit of Hedda Gabler, Nora Helmer and the wild duck Hedvig Ekdal. A strangely charming woman, surrounded by the mystique of the fjords, is overwhelmed by her mysterious past. Ibsen, the grand master of Scandinavian drama, centred his sombre and magical mystery story on her; she is the one who incites the issues of faith, hope and sense. The staging in five acts, directed by Martin Františák, the artistic manager of the National Theatre Brno, and an authority on Henrik Ibsen, evokes a profound theatre experience of walking along a thin line, a boundary between a seemingly mundane reality and the fragility of a dream world.
»The impressively climaxed and visually suggestive staging offers a wealth of acting opportunities. Eva Novotná excels as Ellida; she has beautifully captured the main protagonist’s nervous strain in her effort to maintain personal integrity; she dominates the stage purposefully with no overdose of tragic undertones.«
