Autorenporträt
Henrik Ibsen (1828-1906) has been described as 'the father of modern theatre'. Most of his early plays were traditional historical dramas. After 'Peer Gynt', a fairy-tale fantasy in verse, Ibsen wrote the rest of his plays in prose, and came to be regarded as the great Naturalist dramatist. Robert Icke is a writer and director. As Associate Director of the Almeida, his work has included adapting and directing the multi-award-winning Oresteia and Mary Stuart (at the Almeida and in the West End), Uncle Vanya, and, with Duncan Macmillan, adapting and directing the smash-hit 1984, which has toured the UK and the world, played two seasons in the West End, and won several major awards. His directing work at the Almeida includes Hamlet, the Iliad, the Odyssey, The Fever and Mr Burns.
