A Doll’s House

“A smile doesn’t mean happiness”

A Doll's House by Henrick Ibsen

Director: Nicholas Thoroughgood
Assistant Director: Rylee O'Rourke

December 9 to 19, 2020

Things are never what they seem; a smile doesn’t mean happiness - a laugh, entertainment – a signature, power.

Nora Helmer, smiles all the time.  She laughs, she hums, she dances.  She’s a song bird, a squirrel, a spendthrift.  Life is a wonderful thing in the eyes of Nora Helmer.  She loves her husband.  She’d do anything to protect him - she’d lie for him and die for him.  But could she ever let him do it for her?

Nora finds herself faced with a secret that could destroy her marriage and her husband’s career.  But is that a bad thing?  Things are never what they seem.  A miracle is on the horizon, but it must never be allowed to happen.
