Event Description : New Delhi Players presents 'Gudiya Ghar' Hindi Adaptation of Henrik Ibsen's A Doll's House.
Synopsis:
One of the finest plays written on the subject of women’s rights & has the distinction of being the most performed play internationally perhaps because it’s as close as one could get to the truth of hypocrisy in accepted gender roles in a marriage, in those times and even today. Even though the writer has mentioned that the play is a description of Humanity and is about Self discovery.
Nora and Torvald Helmer believe they are happily married and on the brink of a blissful new phase of life. Torvald has been promoted to bank manager and their money worries are over. But Nora has a secret debt, incurred with good intentions and a forged signature, and with her husband's new power comes the threat of blackmail. Over three acts the illusion of bourgeois contentment unravels, and the play culminates in a spectacular scene between the couple as Nora's lie is exposed and Torvald first blames, then forgives her – and is finally abandoned as Nora recognises the truth of her situation. She accuses her husband, and her father before him, of having used her as a doll, and declares herself unfit to be a wife or mother until she has learned to be herself. The ideal wife & mother walks out of the marriage.
Henrik Johan Ibsen, a major Norwegian playwright largely responsible for the rise of modern realistic drama, writer of A Doll’s House was inspired by the belief that "a woman cannot be herself in modern society," since it is "an exclusively male society, with laws made by men and with prosecutors and judges who assess feminine conduct from a masculine standpoint.
