VIDEO: Go Inside The Costumes Of A DOLL'S HOUSE PART 2 at Berkeley Rep

By:



Berkeley Repertory Theatre's A Doll's House, Part 2, written by Lucas Hnath and directed by Les Waters, began performances yesterday and runs through Sunday, October 21. Individual tickets begin at $30 ($15 if you're under 35) and can be purchased online at berkeleyrep.org or by phone at 510 647-2949 beginning August 12, 2018. Subscription tickets are available now. Press night of this first show of Berkeley Rep's 50th anniversary season will be on Thursday, September 13.

Check out the role of costumes in the show with a few words from Costume Designer Annie Smart in the video!

Who's that knocking on the door? Nora is back in this audacious Tony Award-nominated comedy. It's been 15 years since she slammed that same door on her marriage and children in the revolutionary final scene of Ibsen's signature play. Now a successful yet scandalous writer, she's being blackmailed by a judge and needs her former husband's help. But her family has a few grievances they need to air first.

The creative team includes Andrew Boyce (scenic designer), Annie Smart (costume designer), Yi Zhao (lighting designer), and James Ballen (sound designer).

For the 2018-19 season, Berkeley Rep recognizes BART, Peet's Coffee, and Wells Fargo, who have generously renewed their commitment as Berkeley Rep's official season sponsors. Berkeley Rep is also delighted to have Michael and Sue Steinberg, Jack and Betty Schafer, and The Strauch Kulhanjian Family on board as season sponsors. A Doll's House, Part 2 is made possible by lead sponsors The Bernard Osher Foundation and Bruce Golden and Michelle Mercer and executive sponsors Bill Falik and Diana Cohen.
