Details

by Henrik Ibsen, Lucy Kirkwood

Hedda, still mourning for the father she adored, returns from honeymoon with a husband she doesn't love, to a flat and a pregnancy she doesn't want. Trapped by her past and terrified of her future, bored by her life but too cowardly to walk away from it, she finds herself caught between three men. And in the end, something has to give.

In this radical new version by Lucy Kirkwood, Ibsen's nineteenth-century heroine is relocated in present-day London to startling effect. Like a freshly cleaned old master, Hedda and her predicament emerge with new force and psychological truth

Hedda was commissioned and first staged by the Gate Theatre, London in a production directed by Carrie Cracknell, the co-artistic director.
