Does Anyone Know Where I Can Find An On-line Text Of The Alternate Ending For “a Doll’s House”?

I chose to write my English drama paper on how the plot line of this play is affected by an alternate ending, but I can’t find the alternate ending!

I have often wondered what “the most wonderful” was exactly.

Virtually all productions today, however, use the original ending, as do nearly all of the film versions (the Argentinian version, made in 1943 and starring Delia Garcés, does not; it also modernizes the story to take place in the early 1940’s).”
Also…
“In this alternate ending, Nora decided to stay with Torvald Helmer and the kids rather than just walking out. This goes against everything that he was trying to show about society, and nearly every theme within the book. No wonder he hated it. “
