By Henrik Ibsen, adapted by Amy Herzog
Directed by Ali Tallman
Nov. 13-29, 2026 at Island City Stage
A Florida premiere.
Premiered on Broadway in 2024.
Suitable for Ages 12+
THE SETUP
A doctor becomes convinced the town's water is making people sick. If he's right, fixing it would cost the town its livelihood. Now the whole community has to decide what comes next.
THE QUESTION
What holds us together when the truth is expensive and everyone is sure they're right?
AMERICA AT 250
Making hard choices together when the stakes are high is democracy's oldest challenge. Written in 1882 and now reimagined in Amy Herzog's sharp contemporary version, Ibsen's play reads like today's headlines. Not because it predicted a single crisis, but because it understood the test every community faces when a warning and a livelihood collide.
