Doctor vs. Town: Ibsen’s Relevance Today | Adelaide News

A fresh, timely adaptation of Henrik Ibsen’s “An Enemy of the People” hits Adelaide this September, directed by award-winning South Australian theatre maker James Watson. In this gripping new version from his company Famous Last Words, a doctor’s life-saving discovery threatens his town’s economy — and his own brother, the mayor, tries to silence him with misinformation. Tied to real local issues like algal blooms and parkland debates, the play culminates in a live audience town hall meeting designed to spark urgent conversation. With Watson’s proven track record in experimental, psychologically rich theatre, this is more than a show — it’s a call to action. Tickets on sale now; post-show Q&A on Sunday, September 20th.
