Hedda Gabler

By Henrik Ibsen & Adapted by Patrick Marber

Just married. Buried alive. Hedda longs to be free…

Hedda returns from her honeymoon with new husband George Tesman. Struggling with her marriage and a life devoid of excitement, she strives to find a way to fulfil her desires by manipulating those around her.

Way ahead of its time, Ibsen’s eviscerating exploration of female rage feels more relevant than ever. This is the story of a woman so unhappy, she’ll set the world on fire just to watch it burn.
