Synopsis

Adapted by Michael Meyer

Considered scandalous and subversive in its day, Ibsen’s classic Hedda Gabler, examines the life and psyche of an ambitious and talented woman, trapped in a loveless marriage by obligation and society and yearning to break free of her dull and stifling existence as a traditional housewife in 1890’s Norway. One of modern literature's most infamous protagonists, Hedda Gabler lies, cheats and steals to escape her own boredom heedless of the consequences to those around her, until the very bitter end… Produced by special arrangement with Dramatists Play Service, Inc.
