A Doll's House opens tonight and runs until Saturday.

'It's a play that teaches us about relationships and it's a real cliffhanger,' said director Peter Beck.

'It's very much a play about morals and roles and gender in the Victorian period. It's an interesting essay on how far we have or haven't come since then.'

A Doll's House is at the Hostry until Saturday. Performances are at 7.30pm each night. Tickets £15 (£12). To book call 01603 598676 or visit www.hostryfestival.org
