Notes: Original Playwright - Henrik Ibsen | ||||
Synopsis: Blackmail and innocence, love and hypocrisy, honour and betrayal collide in one of the most groundbreaking and celebrated plays in theatre history. Nora thought she had the perfect life until a ghost from the past returns. Forced to confront reality, she recognises that she is little more than Torvald, her husband's plaything, trapped by convention within a suffocating marriage. Her decision to slam the door on being a wife and mother and empower herself, is one of the iconic moments of modern drama. In 1879, Ibsen's A Doll's House stunned the world and provoked outrage. One critic compared it to the 'dropping of a bomb into contemporary life'. | ||||
