UC Irvine's Claire Trevor School of the Arts Department of Dram to Present AN ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE
by BWW News Desk - March 25, 2016
UC Irvine's Claire Trevor School of the Arts Department of Drama presents Henrik Ibsen's classic An Enemy of the People, an examination of societal dynamics that is perhaps even more relevant today than when it was written in 1882. At the heart of this story is individual truth-telling versus popular opinion, the ulterior motives of economic interests, and the question of whether truth is ever absolute. In Ibsen's words, spoken by the play's idealistic Dr. Stockmann, 'Truth shifts. You don't seem to realize that over the centuries what were truths reconfigure as lies.'
