THE STORY: Ibsen's most beguiling antiheroine is given a new twist in Jon Robin Baitz's acclaimed adaptation of HEDDA GABLER: She's no longer the chilly, inscrutable manipulator but a woman with, as the New York
Times put it, "a context and a persuasive raison d'être." Ibsen's classic play here emerges with renewed vitality and newfound dramatic resonance.
