This is an interesting play to watch, the scenes and costumes are professionally made. Each character played their assigned role very well. The embedded message and language are very clear and fluent The setting of this play was during the Christmas/ New Year season, with Christmas trees adorning Nora's house, this gives a true meaning to being "home for Christmas".
After watching this play , I came to the conclusion that Nora is not a victim after all, She seems completely happy at the beginning of the play. She appears contented with what Torvald provided for her and her children. She speaks with so much excitement and even teases her husband affectionately. She typically plays the role of a homemaker and takes so much pleasure in being in the company of her children and friends as she enjoys her "doll like" existence.
With time , Nora transformed herself from "a silly girl" character her husband labelled her to a woman standing for what she believes in. Torvald's reaction to her blackmail help propelled a 360 degree turn for a woman I consider smart and calculative.

Helen, I think we are on the same page. The author was trying to make a bigger point. It's a shame the character had to be so unapealing but that is the direction he took.. ... He didn't want to leave it to any question that he wanted to equalize women and men in this story.
