The Norwegian author and dramatist, Henrik Ibsen, wrote many plays. One we will read is A Doll’s House. Everything Ibsen did in his life he devoted to the theater. He was born on March 20, 1828 and died on May 23, 1906. When he was only eight years old his family went into poverty. Ibsen's mother loved the theater and that is why Henrik Ibsen got so into theater and is one of the best Norwegian playwirters.
As a child Ibsen loved art and want to become an artist. His mother was a painter and she was also big on theater and that really inspired Ibsen. Ibsen became a very famous playwriter and in 1852 his theater sent him on a study to Denmark and Germany. Henrik Ibsen wrote "A Doll's House" and it was shown on stage on December 21, 1879 in Copenhagen, Demark. The play is about a man and wife, where the wife is treated as a play thing.
