A DOLL’S HOUSE, PART 2

A DOLL’S HOUSE, PART 2

Playing in the Long Beach Playhouse’s Studio Theater

July 18 – Aug. 15, 2026

By Lucas Hnath

Directed by Phyllis Gitlin

Fifteen years ago, Nora Helmer slammed the door on her stifling domestic life, leaving behind her husband and children for a life unknown.  Now 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. A DOLL’S HOUSE, PART 2 is a funny, probing, and bold new drama/comedy that is at once a continuation of Ibsen’s play and a heartfelt meditation on how far we’ve come in the century and a quarter since.
