Commissioned by On the Boards for their Northwest Artist Series, this new ensemble generated work explores the collision of Hedda's 19th century world with today's popular culture. Traditionalists should be warned, because The Ensemble is taking this classic play and blowing it wide open to find out what makes it tick. |
