OLD SCHOOL THEATRE presents
A DOLL’S HOUSE, PART 2
BY LUCAS HNATH
At the end of Ibsen’s classic, ground breaking 1879 play, A Doll’s House Nora walks out on her marriage, home and young
children. Playwright Lucas Hnath builds on Ibsen’s seminal work by imagining what happens when Nora returns years later
with an urgent request. Old School Theatre Company presents Hnath’s rich, stand alone sequel, eloquently exploring
traditional gender roles and social class still inherent in today’s society. A Doll’s House, Part 2 received its UK premiere at the
Donmar Warehouse, London in 2022.

Black & White Productions revisit how RDF (or RADAR as it came to be known) was developed at Orfordness & Bawdsey with a new play – OPERATION:RADAR

And even if they do find answers – who will operate the new Chain Home Stations now all the men are being called up?
