Jeremy Strong returns to Broadway in AN ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE

It has been announced that Emmy, Golden Globe, and SAG Award-winner Jeremy Strong (Succession) will star in a new Broadway production of Henrik Ibsen’s An Enemy of the People in Spring 2024.

Featuring a new adaptation by Amy Herzog and directed by Tony Award-winner Sam Gold, the production will premiere on Broadway at a theatre to be announced.

Full cast and creatives will be revealed at a later date.

Set in a small Norwegian spa town, Ibsen’s An Enemy of the People is about Doctor Thomas Stockmann, a man of principles who discovers that the spa’s water is poisoned. He naively expects the mayor to greet the truth with gratitude, but the town’s political machine will brook no threat to its prosperity, even if it means letting thousands of people be sickened. Doctor Stockmann becomes a whistleblower, and the public campaign against him mounts, setting up a moral battle between a lone truth teller and a society desperate for self-preservation.
