      'He is playing, of course, with Ibsen, with Strindberg, and with the actors. In his own unique way he moves between decades, dramatists and productions, cutting and pasting, contriving with just a hint of mendacity.'
      Ingegärd Waaranperä, Dagens Nyheter, about Bergman's adaptation in 2002

      Bergman’s radical adaptation of Ghosts (in which he even includes passages by Ibsen’s nemesis August Strindberg) was staged by himself at the Royal Dramatic Theatre in 2002, and has since been adapted by others as well.
