WELCOME Happy New Year, and welcome to A DOLL’S HOUSE, PART 2 by Lucas Hnath. Salt Lake Acting Company starts the new year by rededicating ourselves to SLAC’s mission:
To engage and enrich community through brave contemporary theatre. This mission statement defines us, and it’s joyfully at the heart of everything we do. Let’s break it down. To engage and enrich community: Our community (audience, artists, anyone that walks through our door) is the heartbeat of this organization and breathes life into this place. I love it when our audience tells us about the significant impact SLAC makes in their lives. One of my favorite quotes is from longtime subscriber Willamarie Huelskamp. She says, “Salt Lake Acting Company makes living in Utah bearable.” Another quote that touches my heart is from another longtime subscriber, Peter Gibbs. I was helping him with the chair lift to the Upstairs Theatre, and he said, “Take me to heaven, that’s what I call SLAC, heaven.” Peter was the first ‘new subscriber’ I obtained when hired to do so in 1998. High accolades, such as these, confirm that SLAC is a sparkling jewel in our community. Through brave contemporary theatre: Our definition of theatre goes beyond the plays we produce. Theatre means creating the right environment that supports the play’s process; that helps SLAC’s staff to succeed in their positions; that leaves our audiences looking forward to coming back. I hope you enjoy A DOLL’S HOUSE, PART 2, directed by Nancy Borgenicht. In remembering 1998, Nancy Borgenicht and Al Nevins hired me to obtain and retain SLAC Subscribers. Who knew that 22 years later, I would be running the company and have the honor of asking Nancy to direct this play? It speaks to the endless possibilities that are Salt Lake Acting Company. It’s a delight to serve you through SLAC’s mission,

IN THE ROOM with Nancy Borgenicht
MEANDERING THOUGHTS ON A DOLL’S HOUSE, PART 2 If you’ve never read or seen A DOLL’S HOUSE by Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen, you still may have heard of it---that really old play about Nora Somebody who slams the door and leaves her husband and children. Shocking when it was first seen in 1879 Copenhagen--shocking still. It was a revolutionary work of domestic realism --the first of its kind--- taking us into the marriage of a 19th Century middleclass Norwegian family. It changed theatre forever. Ibsen’s A DOLL’S HOUSE is now 141 years old and continues to be one of the most performed plays in the world. Lucas Hnath, A DOLL’S HOUSE, PART 2 playwright ----pronounced “Nayth,” loves Ibsen. Hnath asked himself the same question audiences have been asking the past hundred plus years: When Nora Helmer slammed the door and left--- what happened to her? Hnath wanted to get inside Ibsen’s skin. Hnath found a bad translation of A DOLL’S HOUSE online and started cutting and pasting Ibsen’s dialogue, re-writing it his own way. He spoke to women scholars, read George Bernard Shaw’s essays on marriage, and found inspiration in the Greeks and their love for argumentative dialogue. He kept futzing and playing until he got to the essence of what he wanted to say about marriage, divorce, family. He culled his characters down to four: Nora, the wife; Torvald, the husband; Anne Marie, Nora’s childhood Nanny and now her children’s Nanny; and Emmy, Nora’s grown daughter, whom she left when Emmy was four. So. It’s fifteen years later---1894--- and Nora comes back! Why and what’s become of her? In those days, a woman on her own, could be a seamstress, a factory worker, a clerical worker, a prostitute, or a wife. Divorce was rare, shameful, one lost the respect and weight of one’s name, a scandalous black mark that lasted a lifetime. Norwegian public records from 1894 list only seven divorces! The husband, of course, could divorce in a snap. The wife had to prove infidelity, impotence, desertion--or that, thanks to her husband, she now had syphilis. The husband had absolute custody of the children no matter who left whom. A married woman could not sign a loan, a bank check, a contract, an agreement of any sort. Had she come into the marriage with money, it now belonged to her husband. Women could not vote, could not own property, were treated like little dolls who could not think for themselves.

IN THE ROOM Hnath has said in interviews that one doesn’t need to know Ibsen’s A DOLL’S HOUSE to see A DOLL’S HOUSE, PART 2. And no question, A DOLL’S HOUSE, PART 2 stands on its own. For us though, the beautiful audacity of Hnath to take on this hugely famous iconic play and character --- gave us no choice but to immerse ourselves in the original. Turns out it’s riveting. You also see why every serious actress dead or alive has played Nora or wants to play her still. The original, as well as A DOLL’S HOUSE, PART 2, asks the same questions: Is marriage a viable institution? Is it even necessary? What do men want? What do women want? What does the world want and why is the world so often wrong? Can it ever be a good thing to leave or be left? How much has changed? How much has not changed? Ibsen’s A DOLL’S HOUSE is also very much about not talking. “We never talk,” Nora says, minutes before she leaves and slams the door. A DOLL’S HOUSE, PART 2 is all about talking! It is a two-person verbal boxing match between Nora and Anne Marie; Nora and Torvald, Nora and Emmy. We are witnesses to four points of view where no one wins and everyone is right. A DOLL’S HOUSE, PART 2 is funny, sad, ridiculous, tragic, brave, sweet, loving, stupid, hurtful, selfish, touching, maddening---like life. The play moves like a bullet train. You are totally transported into 1894 Norway --but for some micro seconds, you may find yourself right here, right now! It’s a trip. Thank you so much for coming. Vote.

THE DOOR SLAM HEARD ROUND THE WORLD by Heather Nowlin, Production Dramaturg If you don’t remember (or never saw) Ibsen’s original A DOLL’S HOUSE, don’t worry: there’s absolutely no need to study up on the 140-year-old Norwegian play to enjoy Part Two. Even if you are familiar, here are some facts about the setting: • Nora, hitherto an extremely submissive wife, left her husband Torvald and their 3 children at the end of the first play • Divorce was practically unheard of then. Only 7 cases were recorded in the 1880s in Norway, a country of 2.2 million people • Protestant sensibility, in an effort to combat some of the effects of industrialization, had made the marriage contract and the family unit priority number one in civilized society • There were very few rights for women in Norway (or Europe, or America for that matter) at the time. A woman was considered her father’s property until she was married, at which time she became the property of her husband The moment Nora leaves her husband and family is the most famous part of the original story, and has been referred to as “the door slam heard round the world.” Nora’s actions in the play reverberated in the hearts of audiences, for good or for ill, and ushered in a cultural shift that had been brewing at the time – and that we’re still trying to figure out how to live with today. When the original play premiered, audiences were shocked. They weren’t even used to hearing a play performed with realistic dialogue (they were used to metered verse at the theatre), let alone seeing a woman who shakes off her most sacred duties to marriage, family, and a happy ending. No one expected to see Nora slam the door on Torvald and her children – but slam it she did, sending a shockwave of realization, and action, on the part of oppressed women in Western society. So sit back, and enjoy the continuing conversation – it’s one we’re still discussing, and likely will be for, oh, at least 20 or 30 more years.

REVIEWS FROM THE 1879 PREMIERE OF A DOLL’S HOUSE IN COPENHAGEN
Photo: Joshua Black
The Royal Theatre, Copenhagen.
Faedrelandet Copenhagen 22 December 1879 …It was obviously followed with great excitement at least up to the last scene, and the applause was strong both after the first and second acts, as it was after the final curtain. But we do want to ask the honorable audience members, if the impressions they received were of the kind they are used to getting from a genuinely poetical work of art and if the mood in which they left the theatre was the joyful happy and buoyed one …but it seems doubtful to us, if his latest work, its great technical merit and rich psychological interest notwithstanding, is a step in the right direction or-on the wrong track.” Social Demokraten in Copenhagen 23 December 1879: Finally, an event at The Royal Theatre, and an event of the first class! This play touches the lives of thousands of families; oh yes there are thousands of such doll-homes, where the husband treats his wife as a child he amuses himself with, and so that is what the wives become….Who, after seeing this play has the courage to speak scornfully about run-away wives? Is there anyone who does not feel that it is this young and delightful young woman’s duty, her inescapable duty, to leave this gentleman, this husband, as he slowly sacrifices her on the altar of his egotism, and who fails to understand her values as a human being.”
