A Doll’s House Part 2 Arrives in Seattle

Playwright Lucas Hnath’s A Doll’s House Part 2 came to Broadway in 2017 and garnered eight Tony Award nominations. Pamela Reed, playing Nora Helmer, heads up an outstanding cast for the show’s Seattle premiere at the Seattle Rep. The play’s action is set fifteen years after Nora walked out on her family in Ibsen’s groundbreaking Victorian era masterpiece, A Doll’s House. While enjoyment of the Rep’s current offering wouldn’t be curtailed if you haven’t seen or read Ibsen’s play, some familiarity with the work can only add to your appreciation of this thought provoking new show. However you approach the evening, you will be confronted with tough questions on the role of husbands, wives and marriages that really have not been definitively answered in the last 140 years.
