About The Show
Patrick Marber's adaptation of Henrik Ibsen's Hedda Gabler is a modern take on the classic drama, focusing on the psychological complexities of the titular character, Hedda, and her struggles with societal expectations and personal desires. The play, while rooted in Ibsen's original, explores contemporary issues like gender roles, celebrity culture, and the impact of the internet. Shinn's adaptation aims to make Hedda a more relatable and empathetic figure, even amidst her manipulative and destructive actions.
