Fifteen years after Nora Helmer slammed the door on her stifling domestic life, she is knocking at that same door, having returned with an urgent request for her former husband. Before Nora can get what she needs, she must reckon with the people she left, all of whom have some choice words for the former Mrs. Helmer. Lucas Hnath's funny, probing and bold new play is at once a continuation of Ibsen's complex exploration of traditional gender roles while also creating a sharp contemporary take on the struggles inherent in all human relationships.
