Description
"We are not one and the same person. We are possibilities, perspectives of a radical self-discovery." Nora has left her family and disappeared without a trace. Her friends, neighbors, and acquaintances are horrified. How can a mother just abandon her children from one day to the next? Three women, each different from the other, search for reasons and must realize that they are more similar to Nora than they would like. What Ibsen negotiated 140 years ago with the female character Nora has gained new urgency: How does the modern society of a thousand options deal with the realization that we are still far from an equal distribution of roles? What happens when a woman takes stock and dares a new beginning? NORA NORA NORA explores the tension between a feel-good oasis, powerlessness, justice, and appreciation. Three women meet and confront their own demands, expectations, and possibilities. Their own position, relationships, and view of their own lives are put to the test. Is the new normality an opportunity for a new distribution of roles? And if so: What are we willing to give up for it? Guest performance
