Casa de nines (‘House of Dolls’)

Casa de nines is one of the main works written by Henrik Ibsen and was the first work by the Norwegian playwright performed in Catalan. The author put feminism on stage in 1879 to show a reality that still did not exist.

The play is a contemporary drama where established morality and customs confront the egocentricity of the characters. The protagonist, Nora, a beautiful, individualistic and very pampered woman, ends up recognizing the falsity of everything around her and acting accordingly.

In October 2006, Tequatre appeared for the first time on theater stages. Since then, the company has had the opportunity to travel around the Països Catalans and abroad with its shows: Retalls (‘Snippets’), La moda que incomoda (‘The unsettling fashion’), El compta comtes (‘The Count Counter’), La història del cavaller Torbat (‘The story of the Troubled knight’), Una mà de llegendes (‘A handful of legends’), La llegenda del bruel (‘The legend of the bruel’), Les desventures d’en Pepet, (‘The misadventures of Pepet’) Ai las!
