Event Hedda Gabler
Print | Go to Admin
DescriptionArtistic Director Marti Lyons will direct a new staging of Hedda Gabler, adapted by Christopher Shinn from a literal translation by Anne-Charlotte Hanes Harvey. The classic Ibsen drama explores themes of constraint, manipulation, and personal agency through its enigmatic central character. “This adaptation offers a deeply contemporary take on a timeless text,” said Lyons. “Shinn’s script reveals the emotional and moral complexity of people trying to break free from societal expectations while wrestling with their own complicity.”
