Ibsen 2006

The year 2006 is the anniversary of Henrik Ibsen's death. He is an extremely influential Norwegian playwright who was dubbed "the father of modern drama". He was largely responsible for the rise of the modern realistic drama, and is the most frequently performed dramatist in the world after Shakespeare.

Lots of events are held all over the world under the title of "Ibsen 2006". Japan has also some events related to his anniversay. All I know about Ibsen is only "A Doll's House" which I read so many years ago. If I have a chance, I'd like to see "Rosmersholm" by Engeki Syudan En.
