THE NEWEST SCENE in the DIRECTOR’S CHOICE FESTIVAL:

“Scenes from GHOSTS”:

ONLINE PROGRAM

IF YOU LIKED THIS SCENE, PLEASE CONSIDER DONATING HERE

Written by Henrik Ibsen

Directed by Holland Renton

ABOUT THE SCENE:

In Henrik Isben’s GHOSTS, secrets and archaic ideas clutch with invisible hands, holding us back from what is possible.  To explore this timely theme, director Holland Renton has curated scenes from the show to distill the relationship between mother (Mrs. Alving) and son (Oswald.), who has returned home after the death of his father, suffering from an unknown but progressive disease that his mother knows the origin of.  Nothing has been rewritten, only extraneous characters and dialogue removed so that the focus of the narrative remains on the relationship between these two.  The result is an examination of the harm caused by keeping truths hidden out of a misguided attempt to save face and protect.

CAST:

• Brenda Kenworthy (MRS. ALVING)
• David Edward Reyes (OSWALD)

PRODUCTION CREW:

• Holland Renton (VIDEO EDITOR)
• Holland Renton (SOUND DESIGNER)
