−	'''''A Doll House''''' (''[[Et dukkehjem]]'' in the original Norwegian, also translated into English as ''[[A Doll's House]]'') [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Doll%27s_House] is an 1879 three-act play by Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen (1828-1906) [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henrik_Ibsen].	+	#REDIRECT[[A Doll's House]]

−	~~== Norwegian and European production ==~~

−
−	''[[Et dukkehjem]]'' is a three-act Norwegian play in prose by Henrik Ibsen. One of the classic realist plays from the 19th century, it premiered at the Royal Theatre in Copenhagen, Denmark, on 21 December 1879, having been published earlier that month.
−
−	The play was controversial when first published, as it is sharply critical of 19th century marriage norms. Indeed an adapted version (without the controversial ending) was prepared by Ibsen for the German production, and this was for a long time used in a number of countries, including South Africa.
−
−	The first British production was in an adaptation by Henry Arthur Jones and Henry Herman called ''[[Breaking a Butterfly]]'', produced at the Princess Theatre, 3 March 1884. The first British production of the play in its regular form opened on 7 June 1889 at the Novelty Theatre, London.
