A DOLL’S HOUSE PART 2
Xavier University Theatre
Feb. 12-18
Gallagher Student Center [Evanston]

Directed by Suann Pollock

In the final scene of Ibsen’s 1879 groundbreaking masterwork, Nora Helmer makes the shocking decision to leave her husband and children, and begin a life on her own. This climactic event—when Nora slams the door on everything in her life—instantly propelled drama into the modern age. In A Doll’s House Part 2, many years have passed since Nora’s exit. Now, there’s a knock on that same door. Nora has returned. But why? And what will it mean for those she left behind? Adult situations and language.
