3 plays to see in Marin this month
• Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen was one of the first proponents of modernism in theater, and the door slam that ends his classic 1879 play “A Doll’s House” has come to stand in for his iconoclastic and rebellious approach. See it for yourself when the College of Marin’s drama program performs “A Doll’s House” from Nov. 24 to Dec. 10 at the College of Marin’s Studio Theatre in the Performing Arts Building at 835 College Ave. in Kentfield. Admission is $10 to $20. For more information and tickets, go to pamarin.edu/current/drama.
• Sara Porkalob performs her one-woman cabaret musical “Dragon Lady,” with help from a three-piece jazz band and a vintage karaoke machine, from Nov. 24 to Dec. 17 at the Marin Theatre Company at 397 Miller Ave. in Mill Valley. Admission is $36 to $47. To get tickets, go to marintheatre.org.
• In 2006, playwright Joe Landry re-imagined Frank Capra’s classic 1946 holiday film “It’s A Wonderful Life” as a live 1940s-style radio play. The Ross Valley Players will bring Landry’s adaptation to the historic Barn Theatre at 30 Sir Francis Drake Blvd. in Ross through Dec. 17. Admission is $20 to $35. Go to rossvalleyplayers.com.
