BroadwayWorld spoke with Brendan Healy about Canadian Stage's production of A Doll's House. Nora appears to be the perfect wife, but beneath the surface she harbours a secret that threatens to unravel her seemingly happy world. As the truth emerges, Nora gradually awakens to her own desires, and the play builds toward a radical act of self-liberation.
Canadian Stage will ring in the new year with Artistic Director Brendan Healy's bold, razor-sharp reinvention of one of theatre's most explosive classics; A Doll's House.
At the theater’s entrance, audience members are handed a packet of tissues sealed with a photo of a frowning man in a birthday hat—Brendan Healy. The program looks like a memorial pamphlet, complete with “In Loving Memory of Brendan Healy” printed across the front. The projected backdrop displays the pulpit of an ornate church. A performer shakes hands with audience members and shares his condolences. But that person, we soon learn, is the deceased. It’s his funeral. Brendan Healy takes the stage, ready to deliver his own eulogy.
