The Master Builder
Celebrated architect Halvard Solness has reached the top of his profession, but success has left him frightened of rivals, memory and decline.
First Night is a theatre diary for logging the shows you've seen and discovering what to see next.
Halvard Solness is a prominent architect increasingly paralysed by the fear that younger people will replace him and that his past will catch up with him. The arrival of Hilde Wangel forces an old promise back into view and pushes him to confront the ambition and choices behind his success, as the possibility of one more great achievement becomes tangled with the cost of pursuing it.
A psychological drama driven by ambition, fear of obsolescence and a charged encounter between Solness and Hilde, with success itself becoming a source of pressure.
psychological drama, ambitious central figures, uneasy pasts and stories about the price of success.
