A Doll’s House at the Guthrie is Funnier and More Relevant Than One Expects From This Classic Play

A fresh adaptation of Henrik Ibsen’s A Doll’s House by Amy Herzog which premiered on Broadway in 2023 opened the 2025-2026 season at The Guthrie Theater. Written in 1879 Ibsen’s A Doll’s House was a controversial play that challenged societal and theatrical institutions. The story centers around Nora, a devoted wife and mother, who struggles with a secret she has long held. With it’s reveal and her husbands reaction, she learns that her value to him lies in her subservience, in her being exactly what he wants her to be. The final scene of the play we are witness to a woman coming into herself, or at least ready to take the steps necessary to discover who she is as a human being, not just as a wife and mother. In the later half of the 19th century it was a daring exploration of gender roles and the rights of women. You can see why Ibsen is seen as one of the most influential playwrights of his time and often referred to as the father of realism.

I had never seen the play performed live but in preparation for seeing Noura, a modern play inspired by it, the Guthrie in 2020 had a production of Lucas Hnath’s sequel A Doll’s House, Part 2 at the Jungle Theater that same winter. I watched a television version starring Julie Harris and Christopher Plummer from 1959. It’s a bit fuzzy now, but I didn’t remember that version being as funny as this one is. One thing that does hold true is how astonishingly progressive this play seems for a play written in 1879. I think that one might mistakenly attribute that to Herzog’s adaptation, but that isn’t the case if memory serves me. There’s been a lot of chatter about the updating of the language with some feeling that Ibsen’s language should be left alone and doesn’t need to be changed for modern ears. Well Ibsen’s language was Norwegian, Danish so unless you are seeing it in that language, you are not getting Ibsen’s language anyway. The act of translation is also the act of adaptation. The translator is rewriting the text so that a different audience can understand the work. This latest adaptation is simply doing that again but for an audience who understands 21st century English. I had no problem with the script and found it to be humorous but still grounded in the realism that Ibsen was so famous for. The ending still packs a dramatic punch, though I suspect our audience was less shocked and more sympathetic as a whole to Nora’s choices than those in 1879.

The set design by Luciana Stecconi in combination with the lighting design by Robert Wierzel creates a dramatic feel to the proceedings that Director Tracy Brigden undercuts effectively with a generous stream of comedic moments. The tone of the set helps to underscore the darker under currents that run beneath the characters cheerful facade. Amelia Pedlow as Nora has a light touch when the character is simply being, simple. But when things gets serious, Pedlow expertly shows us the shattering of Nora’s illusions about her husband and her coming to terms with Torvald’s outburst and what they represent to her. David Andrew Macdonald, as her husband Torvald, is masterful at playing sweetly condescending while also bringing gasps and jeerings from the audience with his line readings.

A Doll’s House is a strong opening to the Guthrie’s Theater season delivering an adventurous (get used to hearing people say that word this season) take on this classic play. One may ask, why stage this play now? The answer is that more than ever in today’s political climate when the rights of women are coming under attack. We need to remind some of our neighbors that women are not wives and mothers first, but human beings. It’s shocking that nearly 150 years after it was written, we are having to make these statements. A Doll’s House Runs through October 12th at the Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis.

Maybe You Could Love Me a World Premiere From Theater Mu

One of the things I love about seeing so many productions is the different cultural perspectives I get to see the world through. The shows Theater Mu presents during its season are great examples of this. Maybe You Could Love Me by Samah Meghjee gives us an inside look into the lives of two young Muslim girls, Noor and Sajida, who are best friends. The play explores topics familiar to us as coming of age themes but through their specific cultural lens. It highlights what is universal about the human experience while also reflecting the unique ways in which our environment effects the ways in which we process those experiences. Like many white midwesterners, I know far too little about Islam, so while I’m not always sure what the characters are referring to specifically, Meghjee’s script provides enough context for me to understand what is happening without ever feeling like I’m being spoon fed information. We are simply observing the relationship between Noor and Sajida through time, seeing how their relationship develops through glimpses into three different ages 8, 17, and 26. It explores sexuality with a frankness that feels genuine and completely non-exploitative. Maybe You Could Love Me is a fascinating exploration of how friendship, queerness, and culture intermingle in the lives of these two young women.

Katie Bradley, who directs the show, is becoming a very strong Director with a clear understanding of how to communicate the growing and changing relationships between characters. Her last effort Stop Kiss, also for Theater Mu, also focused on two young women navigating their sexuality and relationship over multiple time periods. Bradley’s experience as an Actor is a strength in helping her guide these stories which focus on relationships and the connections between the characters. You can see her sensitivity towards the actor’s process in the way she stages the transitions between scenes. Building in time for Ashembaga Jaafaru and Sushma Saha, who play Noor and Sajida, to reset and center themselves into the next age as they change costume on stage. I do want to also note how much I enjoyed the spacious set by Scenic Designer Mina Kinukawa, which even features a bathroom that pushes out from the back wall complete with shower that is used to great effect.

There are other characters in the play that appear only via voices heard through the door to Noor’s room or on a telephone, but this is essentially a two hander between Jaafaru and Saha. Both performers handle the age shifts effectively, finding little touches to show us how they have changed as well as how they have remained the same over the 18 years which the play spans. It’s interesting to note through the script and the performances how the characters have swapped places in key ways. The younger Noor is the more adventurous of the two the one who is less strict with following the tenants of her religion. While Sajida the more timid and more apt to worry about whether something is allowed or isn’t. By the end it is Noor who has fallen inline with the cultural expectations of her community, while Sajida has chosen to follow more of her own path. This also reflects the status of their home lives, where Noor’s family is intact, Sajida’s parents are divorced and her father is uninvolved in her life. Jaafaru and Saha have an very natural intimacy between them which establishes them quickly in the minds of the audience as girls who have known each other since before they can even remember. The final scene plays all the more powerfully because of the bond we feel between them in the scenes from Act 1. Saha as faithful viewers of the YouTube show know is a Stages of MN favorite and they are well matched with Jaafaru. These are two very strong performances that make Maybe You Could Love Me a powerful play that speaks to everyone, while also allowing us a better understanding into Muslim culture.

Maybe You Could Love Me runs through September 28th at Mixed Blood Theatre in Minneapolis. For more information and to purchase tickets go to https://www.theatermu.org/maybe

Zephyr Theatre’s Robin Hood Steals From the Rich and Gives to the Audience

Robin Hood by Greg Banks marks the directorial debut of Twin Cities Actor and Children’s Theatre Company (CTC) Member Reed Sigmund. His greatest gift as a Director is in the casting of the play and then empowering that cast to bring their own voices to their characters and the production. The character work in this show is strong and so funny that one doesn’t know if it’s the script or the performers that make it so hysterical. This version of the Robin Hood tale is framed by a homeless camp sequence in which the four actors playing unhoused people share with the audience the legendary story, which they then enact. The Set Design and all of the costumes come from items that one might expect to be found discarded in such an encampment. There’s no note in the program of who is responsible for those aspects but they are well found and add to the surreal feel of this adventurous retelling. These aspects add a touch of appropriate timeliness to what is mostly a hilarious entertainment. I loved Sherwood when I saw it a couple of years ago at Theatre in the Round, which also featured the comedic genius of Jeffrey Nolan. I think this version of Robin Hood is my new favorite comedic take on the folklore hero. The Temperature was 109 in the shade and everyone in the audience was so entertained but what we were seeing that we forgot to even sweat.

The usual question my wife and I always ask each other is who was your favorite. But as you might expect, the question this time is who was your favorite character played by Jeffrey Nolan? I’m going to go with Prince John, but the five other characters tie as a close second. Nolan is enough to get me to any production as faithful readers will no doubt have realized by now. A more original and unique comedic voice you will not find, it feels like only a matter of time before we see him on SNL. What pushes this show into the stratosphere is the rest of the cast. Finding four other performers who aren’t going to be overshadowed by Nolan, particularly in a comedy where he plays about six different parts including a horse, seven if you include a remarkable, though brief, portrayal of a deer, is an amazing feat. But that’s what we have here. Grace Hillmyer, who readers will also be familiar with as someone who has impressed us in every role we’ve seen her in since first coming to our attention in Kinky Boots at Lyric Arts, plays among other roles Maid Marian. Hillmyer again shows us a new side of herself and her talent with this comedic side that previous roles had only hinted at.

Two of the performers I wasn’t familiar with is Antonisia Collins who plays Robin Hood, and Brandon Brooks as the Sheriff of Nottingham. From what I gather Collins has been racking up small supporting roles at CTC, well. I hope the people at CTC see this production because Collins is clearly ready for leads, which I hope to see her in again very very soon. Brooks, had apparently stepped away from acting a bit, clearly on stage is where he belongs. He is the villain of the piece, but the kind of villain you kinda love to watch. It feels like we are watching the convergence of the next group of actors that will be the ones who move on to bigger cities (please don’t) or are the ones we see constantly working at all the big theaters around town. The cast is rounded out by Jay Scoggin, who has a few small roles but mostly plays live music and provides sound effects throughout the show, which is such a fun treat, I love a live musical score in a play, especially when they are on stage and you can watch them creating the soundscape. When Scoggin does join in the show, he’s as funny as the others and very protective of his Skittles.

The Zephyr Theatre’s production of Robin Hood Runs through August 3rd at Aamodt’s Apple Farm in Stillwater, MN. It’s performed in the great outdoors which reminded me of my childhood theater going experiences at Trollwood Park in Fargo, ND. This is another great show to take the whole family too, but don’t think on it too long as there is just one more weekend to catch it.

Endometriosis: The Musical, Undoubtedly the Funniest Musical About Down There Problems Ever Produced

Nora Sonneborn as Aunt Flow and Abby Holstrom as Jane Photo by Aaron Mark Photo Film

Endometriosis: The Musical is simultaneously drop dead funny and deadly serious, not dramatically but thematically. It brings into the spotlight a painful and sometimes debilitating disease that affects 10% of all menstruating humans. It dares to sing about things that too many people are afraid to even whisper. The show created by childhood BFF’s Maria Bartholdi (book and lyrics) and Kristin Stowell (music and lyrics) began life as a 2022 Minnesota Fringe show, that was performed at Theatre in the Round. I awarded it the second ever The Stages of MN Fringe of the Day Award, it also won three other actual MN Fringe sanctioned Awards, I’m sure those are nice to have too. The powers that be at Theatre in the Round saw what everyone in the audience did that August, a show that had a life beyond Fringe. They asked Bartholdi and Stowell to continue to develop it and now three years later it has grown from a 45 minute show to over two hours. Length hasn’t dimmed it’s energy or creativity, and at nearly three times its original length it still seems to fly by in the blink of an eye. The expansion has allowed it to touch on other areas of Women’s healthcare, sharing some statistics that would be sobering if we weren’t already drunk with the potent cocktail of musical theater absurdity.

Jane played by original cast member Abby Holstrom loves “business” and has dreams of working on her employer Business, Incorporated’s “big account.” When her co-worker Brad is mauled by a bear while on his morning run (did I mention this was in the absurdist comedic vein) she gets her big chance. But as she prepares for the meeting she is stricken down by her period, which is always so painful she can barely stay standing. Throughout the play we are given glimpses of how she is dismissed by co-workers, family, and healthcare providers when she tries to make them understand how bad the pain is. Sadly this is not a fantasy, this is what really happens to women. The average sufferer will see seven providers before they are correctly diagnosed. Endometriosis: The Musical brings all of this into the light through clever songs and a hilarious script. It also adds to the cultural lexicon Pussy Porridge, a euphemism only a mother could love. Some might add a disclaimer that this show should only be seen by those over say 16, but isn’t that part of the problem? I think this show should be seen by everyone who is old enough to be entering puberty, of both sexes. We need to destigmatize (my spell check indicates I may have coined a new word there…cool!) openly talking about issues that affect around 50% of the worlds population. Maybe if we can talk about it, we can learn to finance research into finding ways to improve healthcare for every human with a uterus.

I really don’t want to leave you with the impression that this is a covert message show. The message isn’t covert, they sing about it. And while sure, you might learn a thing or two, you’ll be having too much fun to even realize it. The show is directed by one of The Stages of MN favorites Shanan Custer. Custer is the perfect fit for this material, her comedic sensibilities aline perfectly with the material. With clever and knowing winks to the audience she invites us all to let go of theatrical distance and embrace the silliness. The cast led by Holstrom is stellar including a couple folks on my must see list, such as Tara Borman and Nora Sonneborn, and a few I feel like I’m really noticing for the first time including Christopher Knutson and Jack Strub who approach their characters in very different ways, each perfect for their roles. But all of the talent isn’t on stage, there is great technical work from the production team. Sadie Ward’s Set Design includes giant tampons hanging in the ceiling. Ryan McCanna’s costumes are spectacular including an Elvis like suit with a cape adorned with a uterus. It’s hard to know sometimes which items are set design, costume, or props, but I’m giving a shout out to Prop Designer Mark Steffer as well, because I know some of the stuff that had me almost rolling on the floor must have been his. All of it is enhanced by some really nice sound and lighting cues from Sound Designer Kristin Smith and Lighting Designer Mark Webb. Last but not least Music Director Jean Orbison Van Heel gets a lot out of a three piece ensemble.

I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a musical at Theatre in the round before. Likely one of you faithful readers will correct me, but if there have been, they are few and far between. It’s so great to see the cities oldest running Community Theater host a world premiere of such a fantastic musical. This is a must see and one I’m very tempted to try and see again, which is even harder now due to The Stages of MN’s expansion into the audio visual world, more on that at the bottom of this review. Endometriosis: The Musical runs through July 13th at Theatre in the Round Players in Minneapolis.

Stop Kiss an Important and Beautiful Play for Pride Month From Theater Mu

Necessity requires that going forward in order to produce a weekly YouTube show and podcast that reviews will become shorter. There are only so many hours in a day but, I have no intention of abandoning the blog version. Faithful readers, you have year after year grown The Stages of MN audience. While I hope you will become viewers or listeners as well, there will always be things here that cannot be found there. This will be the place for longer reviews, though slightly shorter than before, as well as Reviews of more shows than can be covered on the YouTube and Podcast versions. Essentially there will be some overlap, but each format will have unique content.

On to Stop Kiss which is a battle between two conflicting emotions and storylines. The play is broken into two timelines, both following two young women Callie, a long time resident of NYC and Sara, who has just moved to the city from the Midwest. One timeline follows them from their first meeting to their first kiss. The second storyline follows them in the aftermath of the kiss, but it’s not what you think. They are victims of a hate crime which leaves Sara in a coma. The two timelines alternate from scene to scene, so one moment we are watching a friendship blossom and then grow into an unexpected attraction. It is full of anticipation and joy and laughter and longing. The other is filled with tragedy, loss, and heartbreak, but also the growth and love. It’s a brilliant script by Diana Son and the duo timeline structure is anything but a gimmick. The one storyline joyfully heading towards tragedy the second revealing the extent of the damage and the repercussions of the horrible event that forms the nexus of the two timelines. What is miraculous is the way in which the telling of the story doesn’t diminish our giddiness at Callie and Sara’s growing bond in timeline one but it does inform our emotional response to timeline two.

The script does half of the work, but without such engaging and warm performances from the two leads Emjoy Gavino as Callie and Kelsey Angel Baehrens as Sara, the emotional resonance wouldn’t work. It’s that odd thing that we call chemistry, it’s why I tear up when Niles confesses his love for Daphne on Frasier (sorry if that’s a spoiler for anyone), and it’s why we are able to forget what we know is coming in Stop Kiss. We like these characters, we like the way they interact, in fact we forget they are characters. We become invested in their happiness, even though we know something horrible is coming. But to say that the success of the performances is due to some intangible thing called chemistry is not acknowledging the masterful work of Gavino and Baehrens. They are so good that they make it look easy. Make no mistake, it is their skill at crafting the roles, their understanding of what each timeline needs from them and their ability to swap between them from scene to scene that gives the play it’s heart and soul. The production is Directed by Katie Bradley who does an excellent job of staging the show, there are a million scene changes by the occur seamlessly and speedily which is key to keeping us invested.

Stop Kiss runs through June 29th at the Gremlin Theatre in St Paul and honestly I know it sounds like it could be a bit of a downer but I assure you it is ultimately a beautiful and hopeful production. For more information and to purchase tickets go to https://www.theatermu.org/stop-kiss#gsc.tab=0

Now more than ever in the wake of the most recent election and the hailstorm of stupidity and hate it has unleashed, theater companies need you and we need them. Buy tickets to shows, go out and support work that reflects diversity and inclusiveness. Donate to your favorite theater companies, don’t wait until they are on the brink of shutting down. We all need to stand up and fight for our theaters whose funding is under attack for promoting inclusion, equality and diversity. In short, theaters are being threatened for sharing stories that reflect our countries cultural and racial diversity.

Sixpack is a Little Flat But Fizzes to Life Thanks to the Secondary Characters at Jungle Theater

Megan Kim, Dexieng “Dae” Yang, Phasoua Vang, Pagnia Xiong Photo by Lauren B. Photography

Sixpack, a new play by Katie Ka Vang is having it’s world premiere at the Jungle Theater in Uptown. It’s a play in which the game of Volleyball plays a central roll in the lives of the woman of the Hmong community of MN. Jumping forwards and backwards in time, the central story is about the friendship between Pam and Jou, or that is to say what happened to that friendship. We see them estranged in the present when Jou, now a Vollyball professional, comes home in time for a fundraiser for her sick mother. In the past, Pam helps her bestie Jou through an unplanned pregnancy. It leads up to a moment when we learn what Jou did to earn the cold shoulder she receives from Pam. The problem with the play is that this central relationship is the least interesting thing about it. What is far more interesting than these two young women are their Mothers and Aunties. Maybe it’s that the older generation is played more for laughs, but those laughs are earned and relatable. It’s hard not to find yourself rolling your eyes at the Pam’s rigid anger, that isn’t even about the thing she has a right to be angry about. In fact, I’m not entirely sure it’s really clear what the chip on her shoulder is about. Jou, is slightly more relatable, she appears to be trying, but her betrayal is hard to get past when we learn of it. No, everything with them just seems a little underwhelming. The heart, and there is a good deal of it, comes from the older generation and I wish the play had either spent more time on them or integrated the two stories a little more.

Ashely Horiuchi plays Pam, Dorothy Vang plays Jou, and there isn’t anything wrong with their performances; the characters are just under developed, with too much attitude for attitudes sake. The real stars are the elders, the best of which is Dexieng “Dae” Yang who brings the energy up to eleven when she bursts on stage as Smiles, Jou’s Mother. As the character states she’s not like other mothers, she has attitude but it seems to come from inside and never rings false. She’s wild, loud, and very blunt and comes across like a force of nature as a young mother, as the older sick mother, she brings it down but never completely lets the fire go out, you can see it waiting to burst through. The other favorite is Phasoua Vang as Windy, who the girls ensnare to pose as Jou’s mother at planned parenthood. She’s the irresponsible friend of the girls mothers who never has a job, is always drunk or stoned, all of which could play very cartoonish but somehow just ends up being very funny and kind of endearing.

The show is directed by Dr. Sara Pillatzki Warzeha who injects some dynamic visuals into the staging. There’s little actual volleyball playing, but what there is was creatively staged. Including a final shot that might make you flinch in you’re in seated in one of the front rows, like I was. Ursula K. Bowden’s set and prop designs are well formulated and executed, there is a nice reveal of a secondary location that was surprising. I always enjoy a set that doesn’t reveal itself entirely at the beginning. I also do want to mention the Lighting Designer Claudia Errickson and Sound Designer Erin Bednarz, as there are several very effective lighting and sound effects like the glow of an off stage TV with the sounds of a VHS tape being loaded in a VCR. The show has several of those little moments that catch your attention and are very well done.
