Hedda Gabler, the daughter of General Gabler, is in a marriage with a man she hates, in a house she despises. The once extraordinary woman is now constrained by the confines of a new, undefinable space. This new adaptation by Kyle Goeken takes Hedda outside its setting into a new space, is stripped back and simmering with unresolved tensions.

Ibsen wrote about psychology in the 1800s before it was an idea. Audiences at the time were baffled by this and couldn’t fathom a person behaving in such a way. How does Hedda exist today? You’ve seen her before.
