Nora: A Doll's House/Harlequinade

Nora: A Doll's House

Henrik Ibsen's brutal portrayal of womanhood caused outrage when it was first performed in 1879. This bold new version by Stef Smith reframes the drama in three different time periods. The fight for women's suffrage, the Swinging Sixties and the modern day intertwine in this urgent, poetic play that asks how far have we really come in the past hundred years?

Harlequinade

Terence Rattigan's play Harlequinade follows a classical theatre company whose intrigues and dalliances are revealed with increasingly calamitous consequences in an affectionate celebration of the lunatic art of putting on a play.

Performed as a double-bill, separated by a 15 minute interval.

Recommended age: 14+ Strong language and adult themes.
