London The National Theatre – The Wild Duck – 1979

An original theatre programme for Henrik Ibsen’s The Wild Duck at The National Theatre, London, in 1979, with Ralph Richardson, Michael Beint, Eva Griffith and Harry Lomax. It comes with leaflets and a cast list sheet.

Ibsen’s tragicomedy explores the damage done when an idealist insists on exposing the lies a family lives by.

A late stage appearance by one of the great knights of British theatre makes this a fine piece of theatre memorabilia from the 1970s.

Did you know?

  • Ibsen wrote The Wild Duck in 1884, and it is often seen as a turning point towards his more symbolic later plays.
  • Ralph Richardson was knighted in 1947 and co-led the Old Vic company with Laurence Olivier in the 1940s.
  • The wild duck of the title is a wounded bird kept in the family’s attic, which becomes the play’s central symbol.
