Norma (play)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Norma, or A Politician's Love (Norwegian:Norma eller En Politikers Kjærlighed) is a drama written as an opera parody by Henrik Ibsen. It is influenced by Vincenzo Bellini's opera Norma, which Ibsen saw in 1851, but the role figures are central contemporary politicians. The play was first printed anonymously in the satirical magazine Andhrimner in 1851.[1] The first book edition came in 1909. The first performance of the play was at a student theatre in Trondheim 1994.
