About the performance

UQ Drama students present a play by Henrik Ibsen and Eli Kent, directed by Daniel Evans. 

Perhaps one of Ibsen’s most imaginative and colourful works, Peer Gynt has been adapted by Eli Kent in Peer Gynt [Recycled] to rebirth Peer's big dreams and lust for life. And women. Cast out for seducing a bride on her wedding day, Peer wanders the world in search of love, fame and fortune, meeting unbelievable characters and treading a muddied path between truth and lies.
