Hedda Gabler is one of Henrik Ibsen's iconic plays and has been performed across the world in over 50 languages for over 100 years. Often called the Female Hamlet, Hedda continues to scandalise, shock and move audiences the world over.
Returning from her honeymoon, Hedda Gabler is desperately bored with her marriage to George Tesman, an aspiring professor. She begins plotting against the brilliant and dissolute Eilert Lovborg, an old admirer of hers and a rival of her husband's for a coveted academic post. Slowly but irreversibly, she begins to find herself drawn into the clutches of the predatory Judge Brack, who is keen on establishing a menage a trois. Hedda Gabler is one of modern theatre’s most iconic figures.
