The Problem of Social Unawareness While the plays Walsh by Sharon Pollock and A Doll’s House by Henrik Ibsen take place in apparently opposite social settings – the former in the sometimes wild and savage environs of a frontier trading post of early Canada, and the latter in the “refined” world of European bourgeois respectability of the late 1800’s – they both act as problem plays when they illustrate aspects of the problem of acquiring individual human understanding.
