this whole blog is for theatre class.

okay.this is for mcvts theatre class.
mrs.aladren, i don't have constant access to the Internet.i will read and write every day,but posting them here may be difficult.i'm not sure if i can post everyday,but i will try!

anyway.....

a doll's house-day 1.

so after reading today in class as well as at home, i see that Nora isn't as much of an airhead as i thought in the beginning.she actually has a whole life no one is really aware of,but i feel that later on her secrets will come out.Christine won;t keep them locked up for too long.and seeing as though Christine and Mr.Krogstad have history together it will be the cause of more drama along with Nora's secrets.
Nora also seems to have history with mr.krogstad.maybe he's the one who lent her the money for the family's trip to Italy.now he's here to cause problems for both of the girls.
i feel like Nora has the whole group fooled with her calmness,especially her husband.some people know her secrets,but only bits and pieces.when Helmer hears about anything,perhaps any problems he has had will surface.i don't know if they had divorces back then,but if they did,Nora's and Helmer's marriage might not survive.
i feel bad for Helmer because he has a whole outlook on his wife but he's completely wrong.I'm sure he even thinks of her as a "dumb blond" and he may have a whole alfa-male persona because he knows what he's come from.how he rarely borrows money and if he does he will repay it.its all about him in his mind,he supports the family,but it's actually put on both his and Nora's shoulders.without Nora paying for the trip to Italy,he might not be around to support the family.but without him supporting the family,Nora wouldn't be able to pay off her debts,because she uses the money he gives her.so the power is split in Nora's mind,but in Helmer's its all his doing.i can't wait to see how that will work out in the end.(end page mid 45)
