Each director creates their own Gabler, however Dean Taylor's vision lacks the subtlety which gives the character its enduring allure. Gabler (Josephine Short) begins so ostensibly tortured that she burns out almost immediately. You want to see her gradually descend into no longer being the mistress of her own thoughts. Instead Short delivers it all up-front and the audience is patronised by a recurring eerie piano soundtrack that plays each time she is moved to destruction. She does however, have the looks and full voice to give the character presence. By far the strongest performance comes from Lovborg (Greg Cheverall) who beautifully nails the odd appeal of a clever man clinging to sanity's edge. The lovesick Mrs Elvsted (Sarah Fortune) and the imposing Judge Brack (Daniel Jennings) are also convincing.
