Scena Theatre

A man has been away for a long time. He returns and peers out the window of a flat that he shares with his wife. But is it still his home…and is this even his life? Or does he belong to the past — a spectator of his own abyss? Find out in this surreal story by Jon Fosse, Europe’s most performed living writer — and 2010 winner of the Ibsen Award and the 2023 Nobel Prize for Literature. Don’t miss the Irish premiere of this tragi-comic tale.
