A Doll's House (The Play)?

Question

I am trying to find both endings of the play so i can compare and contrast them. can anyone help me find them??

Answer 1

Hmm. I have heard of the ending of the play where Nora stays with Torvald but I have never seen it anywhere. It was unthinkable for a Victorian era wife and mother to desert her family, no matter how abused she may be. This play ends with 'the door slam heard around world.' It was the begining of modern feminism. It is said such a fury arose over the ending that Ibsen wrote one where she did not leave, but others say that his response to such complaints was Ghosts in which the sins of the father are visited upon the son. You might do research to see if there was a movie of the play, it could have had an alterenated ending.
