Fanny & Alexander (stage version) (NHB Modern Plays)
Beskrivelse av boken
Siblings Fanny and Alexander are growing up amidst the gilded romance and glamour of 1900s Sweden. But their world is turned upside down when their widowed mother remarries the iron-willed local bishop. As creative freedom and rigid orthodoxy clash, a war ensues between imagination and austerity in this magical study of childhood, family and love.
Fanny & Alexander was translated to the stage by Stephen Beresford. It premiered at The Old Vic, London, in 2018, in a production directed by Old Vic Associate Director Max Webster.
Stephen Beresford is the BAFTA award-winning screenwriter of
