About the Play

'A Doll's House' is Henrik Ibsen's best-known play. This masterpiece created quite a stir when it was first released because of its feminist stance, and is considered by many to be the first truly feminist play ever written.

Climax and Themes

The play comes to a climax as Nora, the play's protagonist, rejects her marriage and her smothering life in a man's "dollhouse." Wonderfully written, a true classic.
