In late-nineteenth-century Norway, Nora and Torvald Helmer prepare for Christmas when they receive an unexpected visit from an old colleague who threatens to unveil Nora's deepest, darkest secret.
Nora and Torvald Helmer’s marriage appears nothing but typical, threatened only by the arrival of Krogstad, a former employee of Torvald's, who blackmails Nora with her greatest secret: unbeknownst to her husband, she has illegally taken out a loan to save his life. Henrik Ibsen’s ‘A Doll’s House’ is a landmark work in proto-feminist theatre, exhibiting how Nora attempts to navigate the ties between reputation, sacrifice, and the laws of marriage.
