Beginning on Saturday, September 12, in an experience that is cinematic,
socially distanced, updated and adapted, Equality Productions presents
“Hedda Gabler" like you’ve never seen it.

“Do you think it quite incomprehensible that a young girl - when it can be
done without anyone knowing - should be glad to have a peep, now and then,
into a world which she is forbidden to know anything about?”

Skulking the walls of a house she never wanted and trapped in the confines
of a marriage that disgusts her, bored and mercurial Hedda Gabler longs for
freedom she will never allow herself.  Quietly, maliciously, and perhaps
desperately, she begins to manipulate the lives of those around her,
orchestrating a bid for agency that careens toward self-destruction.
Ibsen’s electrifying Hedda Gabler paints the snarled portrait of a woman
whose character is not easily resolved and forces us to confront the
humanity of those monsters fashioned in captivity.

Part One premieres 9/12 followed by Part Two on 9/19.

Audition notice: The production contains profanity, suicide/self harm,
depictions/discussions of gun violence.
