About An Enemy of the People 

When Dr. Stockmann discovers something incredible about the therapeutic waters in his local baths, his town's destiny is thrust upon his shoulders. But doubt and power pose barriers in his way. Ostermeier's take on this classic tale adds a contemporary twist with allusions to climate change, demonstrating why this story remains relevant today.

Exploring the moral quandaries of whistleblowing, professional obligations, and environmental issues opposing economic interests, An Enemy of the People is a show you do not want to miss. View the Duke of York's Theatre seating plan and book your seats today.
