A Doll's House by Henrik Ibsen
5.0
challenging dark emotional funny reflective sad tense fast-paced

The Doll House by Henrik Ibsen is a masterpiece of modern drama. Although over 100 years old, the play explores  issues that are still relevant with realism and depth. The play depicts the struggles of Nora, a woman who lives as a doll in a patriarchal society, and her quest for self-identity and freedom. The play's ending is still shocking and provocative, as Nora makes a radical decision that challenges the norms and expectations of her time. The characters are well-developed and complex, with each one having their own motivations and conflicts. The play also shows how the characters are influenced by their social status and the roles they have to play. Nora is not just a doll, but a product of her environment. The play is relevant and engaging for today's audiences, as it raises questions about gender, power, and individuality.
