West End Theatre: Ghosts

From the West End Theatre series, productions filmed live on the London stage and screened in HD cinemas. This is Richard Eyre's adaptation of Ghosts, by Henrik Ibsen. Winner of three Olivier Awards following a sell-out run at the Almeida Theatre.

"Helene Alving (Lesley Manville) has spent her life suspended in an emotional void after the death of her cruel but outwardly charming husband. She is determined to escape the ghosts of her past by telling her son, Oswald (Jack Lowden), the truth about his father. But on his return from his life as a painter in France, Oswald reveals how he has already inherited the legacy of Alving’s dissolute life." (West End Theatre)
