“How did Realism Theatre help to find an era of new Theatre and Plays?” Chosen text of study- “A Doll’s House” by Henrik Ibsen (written 1879) Motives: I have chosen to study this piece due to the fact that within the piece there are many different examples of Realism which help show a new “touching” piece of Theatre. Throughout the piece there are also lots of important themes such as freedom, financial status and the sacrificial role of women which are evident in today’s Theatre and so we can compare between modern Theatre and Theatre pre-1900. I also plan to show how this particular piece differed from others that were written at the same time as it. I plan to use different websites and books in order to explain how realism helped a constant evolution of new plays and so the new became the old. I shall also be exploring and idea of Naturalisms vs. Realism to see which at the time was considered more appropriate.
