A Doll’s House- 11/4/09

Before going to see this play,  I wasn’t sure how i would react to it. I do not really like going to see plays because most that I have seen I have not enjoyed. After seeing A Doll’s House, I have to say that I really enjoyed it. The play was about Nora, the wife of a banker, who  in order to save her husband, who was previously sick, breaks the law. She decided to forge her father’s signature so she can take out loans to help pay for her husband medical situation.  She is later faced by a man who realizes exactly what Nora did and explains that he did the same thing and was criticized for doing so. He had lost respect from everyone and chooses to blackmail Nora in an attempt to gain back his reputation. In the end, Nora’s husband finds out everything and reacts by telling Nora he does not know who she is anymore and she is unfit to be a mother and a wife. Nora realizes that her marriage meant nothing to her husband and ultimately leaves her husband and her kids to find her own way. Overall, the play was very interesting and we had learned at the beginning it was a shortened version of the actual play. I believe I was able to understand the play from going to this even though i id not read the actual play.
