Trevor Eve, Juliet Stevenson and David Thacker Remember... A Doll's House

A look back at the 麻豆社's acclaimed 1992 adaptation of Henrik Ibsen's A Doll's House that reunites leading cast members Trevor Eve and Juliet Stephenson and director David Thacker.

A behind-the-scenes look back at the 麻豆社's acclaimed 1992 adaptation of Henrik Ibsen's A Doll's House that reunites leading cast members Trevor Eve and Juliet Stephenson and director David Thacker.

The trio recall the challenges they faced in bringing one of the most-performed plays of the 21st century to the small screen and discuss whether such an adaptation would be possible in today's age of smaller budgets and shorter rehearsal times.

The sometimes prickly conversation also provides a fascinating insight into the craft of acting and directing and highlights how Ibsen's work touches people in very different ways. The three old friends do not always agree on how the screenplay and their characters come across over three decades on from the original broadcast.
