Brief Description: See SIUE Theater and Dance perform a beautiful display full of passion and despair
Filled with a passion for life that cannot be confined by her marriage or “perfect home,” Hedda Gabler strives to find a way to fulfill her desires by manipulating those around her. Hedda and George have just returned from their honeymoon, but when her former lover Eilert appears with a brilliant new manuscript, George’s hopes for a professorship are dimmed. Hedda’s desperate dissatisfaction with her life leads to dangerous choices in this startling portrait of a woman hell-bent on destruction.
