Henrik Ibsen's explosive theatrical masterpiece of sex and power, Hedda Gabler takes place in Norway during the mid-nineteenth century, when the country was in the midst of great change brought about by the development of railroads, the growth of cities and the increasing stratification of the classes. Within this societal framework, Ibsen places the newly married Hedda-bound by the duties of marriage and the limits of being a woman. Her desire to shape a human destiny seethes at the epicenter of Ibsen's famous play.
