Hedda Gabler

Her demise begins when she can no longer drown out the nagging voice that says: maybe it could have been different?

Hedda Gabler
In-house Production

Directed by Peer Perez Øian / Kunsthøgskolen i Oslo

Debut director Peer Perez Øian maintains that the financial and individual freedom in our society is a paradox. We require ourselves to succeed in so many areas, not just financially and emotionally, but also as creative individuals. Øian has chosen to concentrate his presentation of Hedda Gabler on a fundamental dilemma that many will identify with: Should I stake everything on the realisation of my deepest dreams and innermost ambitions or rather play it safe and seek security and material comfort?
