Welcome, Play Reading Group!


We will read Hedda Gabler this Monday, Feb 16, at my place 4665 Kenwood Drive. You should have received directions by email. Contact me if you need details.

I would like to start the reading at 7 pm, sharp! Please do your best to be on time as we have a big evening ahead of us.

Everyone should have read the play (yes, the WHOLE PLAY) by now. Bring your texts (especially those of you who have the xeroxed copies I made), your impressions, your questions, your answers.

I am particularly interested to know who you think Hedda would be if she were a modern American woman. This play is over a hundred years old. Can you imagine a similar scenario playing out today? What might be the same? What would be different?

Also, please make note of the scenes/ events/ individual moments that most caught your attention. Be specific: Write them down, mark them in your text, or take note of the page number.

See you Monday! Oh, and THANKS for checking the class blog! You totally rule!
