Secrets. Lies. Love. Lust. Betrayal. Freedom. Experience one of the most iconic plays of all time in this brand-new adaptation of Henrik Ibsen's classic play A Doll's House. Nora Helmer is a typical upper middle-class housewife living an exquisitely divine life, as she would say. But there's much more below the surface than she's willing to let on! When an old friend shows up unexpectedly on Christmas Eve, it sets off a chain of events that, over the course of three days, changes Nora's life forever. While this is more of an adaptation than a literal translation, Henrik Ibsen wrote that "I consider it most important that the dialogue in the translations be kept as close to ordinary, everyday speech as possible...I believe that a translator should employ the style which the original author would have used if he had written in the language of those who are to read him in translation." This adaptation honors Ibsen's original dialogue and intentions (many of which had been lost in translation) while also making the dialogue sound like it was meant for actors today instead of the Victorian-era. Keep in mind that Ibsen had always intended for this play to be set in the present, not the past. How can we do that when the circumstances of the play are so rooted in the time in which the play was written? We can't set it in the present day because the characters wouldn't behave this way in the present. However, if we set the language in the present day while keeping everything else in the past, the circumstances of the play will work while also feeling like it belongs "in the present."
