Henrik Ibsen was a man before his time. His powerful plays brought to audiences important social issues with his strong, compelling dramas. Times may have changed but Ibsen's plays still spell-bind audiences the world over.

Ibsen's A Doll House is considered a classic and is a popular choice for performance particularly by amateur groups - it requires no royalties and is a consistent crowd pleaser.

And of course, there is the pivotal role of Nora - an exciting challenge for any dramatic actress. Nora - who goes from child-woman to strong and independent though a series or events that she sets in motion through an act of love.

Living the life of a spoilt child, Nora is indulged by her husband who treats her like an adorable little girl rather than as an adult. Her flirting and playing hides her secret - she had forged her now deceased father's signature in order to borrow money to save her husband's life.

And now, the secret threatens to blow her world apart and she is in danger of losing everything - her home, her husband and her children.

"A Doll's House is an intense and compelling journey through the human spirit and well worth the trip." Elyse Sommer, CurtainUp
