Action Breakdown

Below I have provided a downloadable a PDF which has all of the actions of A Doll's House! Although the blocking in rehearsals might vary from what I have in this document, having a knowledge of the stage directions that Ibsen chose to include in the script can give you some insight into the characters and how the play should be staged. 

​

When looking at this list of actions, do not view them as constraints for the production. Instead, stage directions should be viewed as a roadmap that the playwright provides for the production. If you follow the roadmap, you will find how the staging is informed by the text (and the other way around).
