A Doll's House opens April 2, 2010

April 2-18 Fridays/Saturdays 8 p.m.; Sundays 3 p.m. UAA Mainstage Theatre

Henrik Ibsen's A Doll's House remains as controversial and electrifying today as it was when it premiered more than a century ago. At the height of the Victorian era a young wife does the unthinkable -- she abandons her possessive husband and her children for a journey of self-discovery. This play was deemed so confrontational when presented on the New York stage at the turn of the 20th century that the ending had to be changed. This classic of modern literature shaped society and in many ways inspired the women's rights movement. "A thunderclap of an evening that takes your breath away." -- Time Magazine

By Henrik Ibsen, adapted by Frank McGuinness. Directed by David Edgecombe.
