"A Doll's House" is a groundbreaking play set in 19th-century Norway that examines the constraints of traditional gender roles and societal expectations. It follows Nora Helmer, a seemingly naive and content wife who discovers her own strength and independence. At the start of the play, Nora's life appears idyllic, with a loving husband, Torvald, and children. However, it is revealed that she secretly borrowed money years earlier to save her husband's life and has been repaying it in secret.
When her secret is threatened with exposure, Nora confronts her husband's hypocritical and condescending attitude. His reaction forces her to re-evaluate her life, marriage, and identity. The play concludes with Nora making the bold and controversial decision to leave her husband and children to find independence and self-discovery.
Ibsen's work critiques patriarchal society, questions the institution of marriage, and raises issues about individual freedom and self-realization, making it a cornerstone of modern drama.
