'Hedda' is a new adaptation of Henrik Ibsen's 'Hedda Gabler' written by our Artistic Director, Andrew Whittle, and is faithful to the original story, but with just a few tweaks.

It brings together all the best bits from other versions of the classic play, clarifies some ambiguities and has modernised some of the dialogue.

It may have been tweaked, but it is still the intense drama that Ibsen intended!

“I don’t even know always what sets it off, but when it happens I’m not responsible for what I say or what I do.”

Arriving home after a long honeymoon Hedda struggles coming to terms with her marriage, having married for financial security not love, and moving into a new home she and her new husband cannot afford.

Brought up in a sheltered environment by a single parent, Hedda had yearned for years to grasp life by the throat and enjoy herself. Instead she feels trapped. Buried alive with years of tedious, intolerable life ahead of her.

She plots to break that tedium by the manipulation of those close to her, with consequences that even she had not foreseen…..
