Henrik Ibsen wrote drama about marriage, social reputation and the pressures hidden inside respectable households. A Doll's House follows Nora Helmer as a secret financial decision made to help her husband becomes the catalyst for questioning the structure of her marriage. Ghosts turns to inheritance, sexual hypocrisy and the consequences of concealed family history, while Hedda Gabler centres on a woman trapped by marriage, boredom and limited choices. Ibsen's plays are tightly constructed, realistic and dialogue-led, with domestic spaces used to expose wider social expectations. His work fits modern drama, realist theatre and nineteenth-century plays about gender, family and social convention. A Doll's House is the clearest entry point for his domestic realism and treatment of marriage. Read more Less
