Description After the Broadway premiere of Hedda Gabler in 1902, one reviewer wrote of its extraordinary heroine: ˜Degenerate, selfish, morbid, cruel, bitter, jealous, something of a visionary, something of a lunatic. Hedda Gabler is trapped inside a conventional life: she married the scholar George Tesman. But money is short, Tesman'™s old rival Ejlert Lavborg has turned up again, Judge Brack is visiting with alarming regularity, and Hedda Gabler'™s volcanic boredom is reaching its limits. So begins a dangerous game of finding purpose in a purposeless existence.
