Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Anne Pedersdotter: A Drama in Four Acts
Bells at start. Garden at the back of Absolon Beyer's house. To the right (for the audience) the house, with porch before it; three or four steps lead up to this porch from the garden. Farther in the background is an Outhouse. A narrow passage runs between the house and this outbuilding. To the left, in the foreground, a simple wooden table; behind it a bench, and at each end a chair. Trees. In the background a wall stretches across the stage; in the wall is a large gateway with a single, iron-studded wooden door. The arched gateway, as well as the whole wall, is capped with tiles. A couple of steps lead from the gate down into the garden. Outside the wall are seen the street, a mountain, and the sky. The wall extends to the left, where it can just be seen between the trees. It is an afternoon in the early spring. Near the close of the first act the twilight falls. As the curtain rises, bells are heard ringing.
