ABOUT A DOLL'S HOUSE, PART 2:

In the 1879 debut of Henrik Ibsen's iconic A Doll's House, Nora Helmer shocked audiences with her infamous "door slam heard around the world," a bold decision that terminated her relationships with her husband and children but created space for a budding relationship with herself.

Fast forward to 2017 and Lucas Hnath's Tony-nominated sequel, A Doll's House, Part 2. Nora is back, knocking on that same door she slammed fifteen years earlier. Now a successful, self-made writer, is Nora prepared to reckon with the family she left in her journey of self discovery? Audiences need not be familiar with the original play to feel gut punched by this bracingly funny and unabashedly contemporary sequel that dives into the aftermath of a courageous act.

Directed by Matt Cosper (XOXO) and featuring Kellee Stall, Shawn Halliday, Gina Stewart, and Laura Scott Cary, A Doll's House, Part 2 makes its Charlotte debut after years of wowing audiences as one of the finest acting showcases in Modern American Theatre.

The show will be designed by Tom Burch (scenic), Beth Killion (costumes), Robyn Warfield (lights) and Maf Maddix (sound). Carrie Cranford will serve as production manager, and Amanda Labrie will stage manage. Marla Brown will produce.
