$5.00 TICKETS!! Henrik Ibsen's "A Doll's House" opens one week from Friday!!
by Dena M. Warmuth 10 May '18

10 May '18

Tickets are only $5.00!! Come see Olde Towne Hall Theatre's rendition of Henrik Ibsen's "A Doll's House". Director Dena M. Warmuth has assembled a cast which includes the following people: Donovan Riley...Torvald Helmer Amanda Nemeth...Nora Helmer Terry Smith...Nils Krogstad Ray Cosma...Dr. Rank / Porter / Narrator Dena M. Warmuth...Mrs. Linde Megan McCarthy...Nurse / Maid Performance dates are: Friday, May 18, 2018 at 7:30pm Saturday, May 19, 2018 at 7:30pm Olde Towne Hall Theatre is located at 36119 Center Ridge Rd (just west of Route 83). in North Ridgeville, Ohio. Reservations are not required, but you may make reservations by calling the box office at 440-327-2909. Henrik Ibsen's "A Doll's House" premiered in 1879 in Copenhagen, provoking huge controversy within its apparently feminist message, and cemented Ibsen’s commitment to realist drama. In Ibsen's play, Nora Helmer has secretly borrowed a large amount of money to pay for her husband, Torvald to recover from illness on a sabbatical in Italy. Torvald's perception of Nora is of a silly, naive spendthrift, so it is only when the truth begins to emerge and Torvald realizes who Nora really is that unbend-able cracks appear in their marriage. Ibsen's masterpiece examines the way society shapes us and our conception of others. It considers marriage, family, money and the roles of both men and women in a play famous for its flawed and realistic characters. Still shockingly relevant, this revolutionary classic will be brought to life through a reading in the intimacy of the Olde Towne Hall Theatre stage. NOTE: In keeping with the literary power of this play, the performance is a reading of the script from the stage without set or costumes.Not a traditional production.

Family matriarch Stella rules over the family, but she is 85 years old, and her family smells their inheritance coming. Her younger daughter, Mary Jo, comes to visit for the day along with her husband, and their two daughters, prompting a family get-together. Mary Jo is deeply in debt and wants to divide the estate before her mother dies. Various members of the family, including the servants, take sides in the debate and wonder how much, if anything, there actually is to inherit. The family bickers as only a Southern family can, mentioning every slight and insult that has occurred over the past 80 years.
