A searing minimalist adaptation of Ibsen’s classic drama by one of America’s greatest contemporary playwrights.
Crafted for Jamie Lloyd’s stripped-down Broadway production starring Jessica Chastain, acclaimed playwright Amy Herzog’s adaptation of A Doll’s House is lean and tense, paring the play down to its essence to reveal the ways that Ibsen’s themes remain startlingly relevant almost 150 years after the play’s first production. Finding thrilling poetry in the rhythms of everyday speech, Herzog breathes new life into this foundational work of feminist drama, offering a version of Nora’s awakening that feels shockingly fresh and timely.
