"The Haven" is a Norfolk eco-village on the cusp of a grand opening, which is jeopardised by the discovery of toxic waste in the water table. Based on Henrik Ibsen's tragi-comedy about a whistle-blower, An Enemy Of The People, Steve Waters' original play HashtagPublicEnemy brings Ibsen's themes into the 21st century to explore colliding pressures around the economy, ecology, cancel-culture, corruption and popularism.

Dr Tom Stockman has returned from a medical career in Uganda to his birthplace, Branwich, on the Norfolk coast. The town is governed by his sister Penny, a dynamic politician seeking to restore its fortunes with The Haven, a state-of-the art eco-village including holiday homes and an aqua-park. Having joined the executive team as an adviser, Tom realises that The Haven sits on a landfill site. Rising sea levels have caused toxins to enter the water table, threatening a tender ecosystem which risks undermining the idyllic vision, and economic promise of The Haven. When Tom breaks the unwelcome news, he finds himself at the heart of a spiral of media interest.
