Brand
by Henrik Ibsen
adapted by Jeffrey Hatcher
WORLD PREMIERE
April 4 – June 13, 2014
How far is too far? How fine is the line between saint and monster? In a desperate search for a new vision of humanity, fundamentalist pastor Brand demands strict adherence to an ideal of absolutes. When his faith is repeatedly tester, Brand remains steadfast to his beliefs—risking everything in his quest for spiritual perfection. Henrik Ibsen’s epic and thought-provoking drama is the fifth in a series of world premiere adaptations developed for the Commonweal by acclaimed Minnesota playwright Jeffrey Hatcher.
