a doll's house-series of events

a doll's house.

it begins with the platform that everything in the household is ok.the family isn't rich or poor,but middle/high class.the wife has been shopping,the husband has been doing his work in the next room,eveything's good.

next,mrs.linde comes into the picture.she returns to her friend nora,after years of a hard working life,without her husband.and the issue of torvald's illness comes up.the audiance learns that the family had to spend a year on a vacation for torvald's health.

when nora tells mrs.linde that she didn't get the money for the trip from her father,but rather forged his signature on her own bank loan,and the money was given to her by krogstad.and that torvald does not know.

then,krogstad comes to talk with nora.saying that he knows nora's father didn't sign the loan,that it was forged.and that he will tell trovald what nora has done if she is un-able to convince torvald to let krogstad keep his position at the bank.(this is the insighting action.)

nora then hopes for a miricle,she hopes that rank,out of the kindness of his heart will give her the money to pay off krogstad.

nora later tries to plea krogstad's case to torvald.begging torvald not to fire krogstad.when this fails,she looks toward her last hope,rank.

rank comes to visit torvald,and has a quick chat with nora.while nora begins to ask him about the money,rank tells her,that he thinks he will soon be dying,and that he is in love with her,making nora unable of asking him for money.

shortly after,krogstad comes to talk with nora as well.saying since he's been fired,he wants a higher position at the bank.and if he can't get it.her secret is coming out.

when krogstad leaves,he places a letter explaining nora's wrongs in the letter box.

when christine learns of this she feels that the letter is for the best,that nora should tell her husband everything.

nora waits for her miracle.(end of act 2)

mrs.linde then meets krogstad.where she convinces him to give nora back her bond,and stop holding it over her.the two see that they love each other,and that their "messed up" lives could work out if they were together.mrs.linde and krogstad get their "happy ending" together.

later,nora and torvlad return home from their party.

torvald goes to the letter box,and sees what nora has done.he screams at her,saying how she's poisioning the children,and worrying about how he will look,how this will affect him.

when another letter comes from krogstad,saying that nora is basically excused from what she has done,that krogstad won't tell anyone.and torvald changes his mind about nora.he beggs her to come back,but nora's made her desision.

nora decides to leave.saying that she has poisioned the family,that by leaving she's helping her family,her kids.agreeing with torvald's first points,while torvald tries to convince her to come bakc ,to stay with the family.but she leaves.
