The Lady from the Sea

London Theatre Company presents a new production of The Lady from the Sea written and directed by Simon Stone after Henrik Ibsen. Alicia Vikander will play Ellida and Andrew Lincoln will play Edward.

The Lady from the Sea will begin previews on Wednesday 10 September and open on Thursday 18 September. The production, which is in collaboration with Wouter van Ransbeek, will play for 9 weeks until Saturday 8 November 2025.

The Lady from the Sea is Henrik Ibsen’s most radically modern portrayal of a woman’s fight for autonomy in her relationship. Fearful she may have settled too easily for a comfortable life married to a well-off doctor, Ellida searches for a way to break the predictable routine her existence has become. When a lover from her past appears at their remote country house, she has to choose between the life she has now built and the one she left behind long ago.
