Award winning American playwright Lucas Hnath penned this inventive sequel to a groundbreaking Norwegian play.
That play is “A Doll’s House,” written by Henrik Ibsen (1828-1906) and first performed in 1879. “A Doll’s House” was a controversial work in its time. It is the story of a frustrated wife named Nora who challenges her husband Torvald by seeking self-fulfillment in an era when women had few rights and fewer opportunities. The play ends with Nora walking out on him.
The sequel is set 15 years later. Nora returns and demands that Torvald officially divorce her. She navigates some hilarious and harrowing negotiations with her husband, their daughter Emmy and their nanny Anne Marie. Watch the woman who once up-ended the rules of marriage return to set the record straight.
