HEDDATRON
by Elizabeth Meriwether
Directed by Ron May
In celebration of our 10th Anniversary, we wracked our brains to try and think of something we HAVEN’T brought you yet. And then it came to us: ROBOTS! Yup. Real ones. Five of 'em. In the go-for-broke insane and outrageously imaginative
Heddatron, a pregnant housewife is abducted by robots, taken to the rainforest and forced to perform Hedda Gabler by her robot captors. Meanwhile, her family is back home in Michigan trying to find her, and Henrik Ibsen is in Norway attempting to write
Hedda Gabler, as Strindberg taunts him. A hilarious and savage journey we promise will be unlike anything you’ve ever seen…pretty much ever.
“Strangely moving...Achieves true, and truly original, theatrical transcendence…Magical...Brings to mind the heady fall down the rabbit hole that begins Alice's Adventures in Wonderland..."
