Coming Spring 2026

We are bringing Henrik Ibsen's iconic 'Hedda Gabler' to life in a bold electrifying new adaption, touring East Anglia in Spring 2026!

A gripping tale of ambition, manipulation and the desperate search for freedom, Hedda Gabler remains one of theatres most powerful portraits of a woman caught between society's rules and her own desires.

Expect fierce performances, a striking design and the razor-sharp tension that Barefaced Theatre audiences know and love!
