Although only one ending to the play A Dolls House by Heinrik Ibsen is widely known, Ibsen was forced to write an alternative ending, as many discontented directors wanted a happier ending to the play (Jens-Morten Hanssen). The alternate ending contains a very different message. In the original ending (see Appendix 1), Nora leaves her husband Torvald Helmer and her children behind simply to get away from Helmer’s overpowering and controlling actions towards her.
