Peer Gynt, written by Norwegian Henrik Ibsen in 1867, tells a story of the titular character going to North African desert. Over five acts, the roguish folk hero needs to find the love of a woman to be saved, despite him being rather lazy and arrogant for a youth. Though confident, his adventures (or shall we say, misadventures) has him gallivanting around the world, finding wealth and fame but very little happiness. It’s not until he returns home that he finds love and peace.
