Doctor Glas — Folkets Hus, Studion, Umeå
Description was written before the event

A production based on Hjalmar Söderberg's novel about the melancholic doctor Glas and his love for Helga - a woman trapped in a loveless marriage with pastor Gregorius. We follow Glas' increasingly feverish inner dialogue: does one have the right to kill a person to save another?

Director Emma Peters describes it as a thriller, but also as a story about vanity, longing, love and solitude. Jonas Hellman-Driessen brings conductor Tomas Isacsson on stage.
