About A Doll's House, Part 2

The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, W Magazine and Time Out New York all call A Doll's House, Part 2 "the best play of the Broadway season."

Written by Tony Award nominee Lucas Hnath and directed by Tony Award winner Sam Gold, A Doll’s House, Part 2 explores, in uproarious fashion, the emotional chaos that results when Nora Helmer returns to the home from which she exited fifteen years earlier. Tony Award winner Julie White, Stephen McKinley Henderson, Tony Award winner Jayne Houdyshell, and Erin Wilhelmi star in this "explosively funny new play” (The Hollywood Reporter) that delivers "huge rolling laughs, one after the other, for 90 ceaselessly entertaining minutes” (​W Magazine​). Jesse Green of The New York Times raves, “The best play of the year. I love A Doll's House, Part 2. This is a great comedy." Peter Marks of The Washington Post cheers, "I want do nothing but talk about A Doll’s House, Part 2 for the rest of my life.”
