Summary:
Hedda Gabler: Portrays an unhappily married woman who is unable to break free from the conventional life she has created for herself, with tragic results for the entire family.

Master builder: This drama explores the insecurities of an aging architect, Halvard Solness, who suspects that his creative powers have diminished with age. Solness finds strength of purpose in his involvement with Hilda — his muse, inspiration, and ardent believer in his greatness — but their association leads to a conflict between heroic myth and complicated reality.
