Photo Flash: First Look at Writers Theatre's HEDDA GABLER, Now Playing Through 3/16
Writers Theatre presents Hedda Gabler by Henrik Ibsen, translated by Nicholas Rudall and directed by Kimberly Senior. The production is currently playing March 16, 2014 at 325 Tudor Court, Glencoe. Check out a first look at the production below!
Equal parts idealistic heroine and callous antagonist; victim of circumstance and master manipulator, Hedda finds herself trapped by society in a world that does not fit her. To survive, she sets in motion an array of schemes, sowing seeds of calculated destruction in an attempt to make an impact on her husband, friends and lovers. The result is a journey of impulse and emotion that is both achingly desperate and wildly passionate.
Actor Kate Fry and Director Kimberly Senior, collaborators on last season's hit drama, The Letters, bring their shared passion to this master work, offering audiences the unique opportunity to get up close and personal with one of the most extraordinary and seductive characters in the dramatic canon.
The cast includes: Kate Fry (Hedda Gabler), Chaon Cross(Thea Elvsted), Barbara Figgins (Juliana Tesman), Sean Fortunato (George Tesman), Mark L. Montgomery (Eilert Lovborg), Scott Parkinson (Judge Brack) and Kathleen Ruhl (Berte).
The creative team includes: Jack Magaw (scenic); Rachel Laritz (costumes); Christine A. Binder (lights); Christopher Kriz (sound) and Julie Eberhardt (props). The stage manager is David Castellanos.
Performances are January 7, 2014 - March 16, 2014 at 325 Tudor Court, Glencoe. The press opening is January 16, 2014 at 7:30pm. Curtain times are Tuesdays and Wednesdays at 7:30pm; Thursdays and Fridays at 8:00pm; Saturdays at 4:00pm and 8:00 pm; Sundays at 2:00pm and 6:00pm. Select Wednesday matinees are at 2pm.
