A Doll’s House is Henrik Ibsen’s most well-known masterpiece. The play has exerted far-reaching impact on the development of Chinese ideology, literature and drama. LU Xun and HU Shi, two Chinese famous writers, praised Nora’s thoughts on the pursuit of personality independence and individual liberation. CAO Yu, TIAN Han and other prestigious Chinese dramatists also felt inspired by the drama. Since “Spring Willow Society of Shanghai” (a drama society) premiered canovaccio A Doll’s House for the first time in 1914, the work stands out as important testimony to the development of Chinese drama history. In 2014, to commemorate the 100th Anniversary of China Premiere for A Doll’s House, the NCPA (National Centre for the Performing Arts) produced its first drama A Doll’s House in the Multi-functional Theatre, which broughts together a top-grade crew, and shifts the emphasis from feminist ideology to marriage and family contradictions that have greater contemporary significance in view of arousing people’s present-day reflections and gives greater resonance to their lives.
