The Donmar’s production of the Lady of the Sea is set to begin performances October 12 in London ahead of an official opening on October 18 at the Donmar Warehouse. Starring BAFTA Television Award nominee Nikki Amuka-Bird, Ibsen’s classic play tells the story of “Ellida, the lighthouse-keeper’s daughter, [who] is trapped in her marriage and longs for the sea. When a former lover returns from years of absence, she is forced to decide between freedom and the new life she has made for herself.”
