Originally titled Gengangere, meaning both &#8220;those who return&#8221; and &#8220;events that repeat,&#8221; this powerful drama explores the struggle to break free from societal conventions and the lasting impact of the past.<\/p>\n<p>First performed to great controversy, Ghosts remains relevant today, addressing timeless themes like morality, hypocrisy, duty, and personal sacrifice. The play challenges us to consider the role of free will and how much our past shapes our future.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to sit with the other Nordics, send an email to nordicsclub@gmail.com\u00a0 by Sunday, 29th of September with the number of tickets you want (35 CHF each) and we will be buying tickets for those who confirmed and will then ask for payment.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-large wp-image-6729\" src=\"http:\/\/www.nordics.ch\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/file-FZbYxXLs0aj0F7jAxRPoeUhg-1024x1024.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"604\" height=\"604\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nordics.ch\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/file-FZbYxXLs0aj0F7jAxRPoeUhg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.nordics.ch\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/file-FZbYxXLs0aj0F7jAxRPoeUhg-300x300.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.nordics.ch\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/file-FZbYxXLs0aj0F7jAxRPoeUhg-150x150.webp 150w, https:\/\/www.nordics.ch\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/file-FZbYxXLs0aj0F7jAxRPoeUhg-768x768.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 604px) 100vw, 604px\" \/><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nordics.ch\/?event=octoberfest-2024\">Friday 04 October 2024\tOctoberfest 2024<\/a><\/h3><p>Servus!\u00a0The\u00a0<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nordics.ch\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nordics Club Geneva<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0would like to invite you\u00a0to join\u00a0<strong><b>Lady Godiva\u2019s traditional Oktoberfest Party\u00a0<\/b><\/strong>on<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Friday 4 October 2024 from 20:00 !!!!!!<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>(Lady Godiva Pub, Boulevard du Pont d\u2019Arve 53, Geneva \u2013\u00a0Plainpalais)\u00a0<em><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/08753571229b8f3ca1877acc9\/images\/e98667b9-65f1-4953-905f-727100dc0693.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" data-file-id=\"1153419\" data-cke-saved-src=\"https:\/\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/08753571229b8f3ca1877acc9\/images\/e98667b9-65f1-4953-905f-727100dc0693.jpg\" \/><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Their annual party is always a blast, and there will be a<strong>\u00a0Happy Beer Hour<\/strong>\u00a0with free Pretzels &amp; Bratwurst from 20h00 to 21h00\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We have booked a table for us!
