Act 1 .

In the story we have met the characters Nora, Helmer, Torvald, Mrs. Linde, and Krogstad. Nora is the main girl of the play. In the play Nora's husband Helmer was very ill. Nora didn't have a lot of money so she had to borrow money from Krogstad. She wanted to send her husband to Italy so that he would be in warm weather to get better. Krogstad gave her the money to go to Italy but she had to sign a document saying to pay him back. On the document it said that if she didnt pay the check would go to her father. A few months later Krogstad came to her house with a very important question. He had noticed that on the document "her father" had signed it 3 days after his death. He assumed the father had forgotten to put it so she just filled it in but he was most suspicious. They, Nora & Krogstad, both new that if she had forged the document she could be in some serious trouble. Nora and Helmer also remind me of Walter and Ruth from "A Raisin in the Sun". Both of the men are mistreating the women.
