A Doll's House, by Henrik Ibsen
When Nora returned with the trappings of Christmas, did she anticipate that the trappings of her identity as a wife and as a mother could come down before the decorations would? Did she believe that her performance as dutiful wife and diligent mother was enough, for her and her husband? Did she expect to have to choose between her happy veneer, and the uncertainty of the truth…
A true classic of world literature, A Doll’s House, by Henrik Ibsen, explores and explodes gender roles, societal expectation, and relationships based on ideals rather than honesty. Scandalous when first written, A Doll’s House has consistently proven its relevance right up to the present day.
Directed by co-artistic director, Martin French, the play stars Brian Hinds, Beth Tantanella, Joe Monroe, Gerry Rose, Jay Padilla, and The Chamber Theatre’s other co-artistic director, Polina Shafran as Nora.
Ages: Suitable for all, but heavy topics probably will bore kids under 10
