A Doll’s House
Written by Henrik Ibsen
Translated & Adapted by Paul Walsh
Directed by Mary McDonald-Lewis
Blackmail, innocence, love, and hypocrisy collide in A Doll’s House, one of the most groundbreaking and celebrated plays in theatre history. When Nora Helmer tries to save her husband’s reputation by forging a signature on a loan, his response sets into motion a series of events that call into question the validity of their marriage. In one of the most famous (and scandalous) climaxes in all of nineteenth century drama, Nora makes a choice that continues to be debated by audiences to this day.

REVIEWS
“It’s a tight show, beautifully timed, with no wasted moments. It shows off Ibsen’s brilliance with dialogue and rapid plot development. The opening-night audience members were leaning forward, breathing together at various points, waiting to see what would happen next…” – The Oregonian
“…an engagingly adapted standard from one of Portland’s most consistently satisfying companies.” – The Portland Mercury
