What will happen if Dr. Stockmann's discovery is made public? Starring Susannah Fielding, Adam Godley and Ian Ogilvy.

Dr Stockmann has discovered the town's spa-baths are contaminated. How will this affect local business interests? Will Stockmann be publicly vilified?

Will campaigning courage turn into self-righteous fanaticism? Vested interest lives on and this timeless 1882 drama is as up to date now as when it was first performed.
