A Doll's House (4x6)

: 21, 1992

The season of classic dramas comes to an end with a repeat screening of Ibsen's play, from a translation by Joan Tindale, originally shown in 1992. Nora Helmer has years earlier committed a forgery in order to save the life of her authoritarian husband Torvald. Now she is being blackmailed lives in fear of her husband's finding out and of the shame such a revelation would bring to his career. But when the truth comes out, Nora is shocked to learn where she really stands in her husband's esteem.
