A Doll's House - Scenes from a Divorce

Director Mikko Roiha, known for his fresh reinventions of well-known classics, is bringing Henrik Ibsen’s A Doll’s House (Nukkekoti in Finnish) to KOM-teatteri in autumn 2023.

Henrik Ibsen was an “enfant terrible” of his own time, a fearless and innovative artist, who is considered the father of modern drama. Starting out as a romantic family drama, A Doll’s House shook people with its sharp criticism of Victorian marriage norms and women’s repressed position. It still intertwines with ever-current themes of equality and human dignity.

Roiha’s interpretation is set in a small Finnish town in early 2000’s. The themes of money and love, family and betrayal are now being explored in remote surroundings of Ostrobothnia.

On stage Aleksi Holkko, Niko Saarela, Vilma Melasniemi, Markus Riuttu ja Tiina Weckström
