A Doll's House

[Guest guest]

Has anyone had the opportunity to see Lee Breuer's adaptation of " A Doll's

House " ?

It is playing in Providence, RI this week (only one showing which conflicts

with other activities.)

The three male leads are little people and from what I can gather from the

review, the play deals with how women don't fit in to the men's world.

I saw the play back in November. If you ever have the opportunity in the

future, you should try to see it. Not that I go often to the theater, but Doll

House was one of the best experiences I've had watching a play. All three of

the characters who are people of short stature have significant, well-developed

roles. I think it's fun when stage entertainment drifts into the realm of the

bizzare or surreal, and by the second act, Doll House has planted itself firmly

in that zone.

The reviews of the play have also been interesting to follow. Some critics

interpret the casting of three little people as a gimmick while others read the

casting as part of this director's specific vision of the story.
