Ellida.Inspired by Henrik Ibsen’s

The Lady From The Sea.

Stay on dry-land with her husband,

Or answer to the call of the sea?

Duty

Responsibility

The position of women

How the past encroaches on the future

Ellida is not suffering from nerves as her husband believes, she is in the grip of the madness of sexual and emotional obsession.

But men and women can acclimatise

If they are free

If they are free and responsible.

Ellida is the main character from Henrik Ibsen’s play “The Lady From the Sea”. An exploration into the complexities of love, passion, politics and state of mind.
