A middle-aged architect struggles to maintain his title and prestige. The Master Builder, by Henrik Ibsen, highlights the dangers of ambition coupled with insecurity. A successful man attempts to prolong his career by staggering the development of others. A fear of irrelevancy leads him down a dark and irreversible path.

Portrait

Henrik Ibsen (1828-1906) was a Norwegian playwright who thrived during the late nineteenth century. He began his professional career at age 15 as a pharmacist's apprentice. He would spend his free time writing plays, publishing his first work Catilina in 1850, followed by The Burial Mound that same year. He eventually earned a position as a theatre director and began producing his own material. Ibsen's prolific catalogue is noted for depicting modern and real topics. His major titles include Brand, Peer Gynt and Hedda Gabler.
