About: A Doll's House

Every happy family has a secret...
Produced and presented by Xameleon Theatre

Hosted by The Cockpit

Nora and Torvald's family seems to be very happy. They have three wonderful children, a beautiful house and a bright future ahead of them. But is their marriage as perfect as it appears if just a little secret can tear it apart?

Henrik Ibsen's play has been considered controversial and shocking due to its style and content when it was first staged. However, this play exploring marriage, trust and duty is still disturbingly relevant today.

A Doll's House is often perceived as proto-feminist, but Xameleon Theatre's production is much more than a feminist play. It is a contemporary interpretation talking about the courage to be yourself, the right to make decisions and to take responsibility for those. It is the tale about the duty to oneself.
