"...when else have you seen a Hedda Gabler that moved with such compelling force and fluency...? Baitz’s loosened-up, colloquial translation is perfect..." - New York Times
The aristocratic daughter of the legendary General Gabler returns from her honeymoon as the bride of academic but ineffectual George Tesman to face a precarious social position and a shadowy figure from her checkered past. The danger of her situation and growing dissatisfaction with her marriage leads the headstrong Hedda Gabler to wreak confusion and despair upon all who cross her in her increasingly desperate attempt to escape.
