summary

Henrik Ibsen's renowned play, "A Doll's House," is a timeless classic that explores the strained relationship between Torvald Helmer and his wife Nora. Living in a seemingly idyllic home, Nora is a devoted wife and mother who is subservient to her husband's every whim. But when a secret from her past is revealed, Nora's seemingly perfect life is shattered. She is forced to confront the reality of her situation - that she has been living as a mere plaything, a doll in her husband's house. Nora realizes that she must take action to break free from the societal expectations and pressures that have constrained her for so long. Partnered with Christopher Hampton, this adaptation of Ibsen's classic tale serves as a poignant reminder that women must have the freedom to live their own lives and pursue their own happiness.
