In this adaptation of Henrik Ibsen’s classic drama Hedda Gabler, playwright Christopher Hampton brings a modern clarity to the story of Hedda, a fiercely intelligent and restless woman newly returned from her honeymoon into a marriage she finds confining. Trapped between social expectation and her own yearning for agency, she manipulates those around her—reawakening an old flame, undermining her husband’s rival, and ultimately setting in motion tragic consequences. Hedda’s struggle with control, boredom, and self‑destruction drives a tightly wound narrative that interrogates the limits of freedom within societal constraints.
