Bindlestiff Studio, San Francisco's epicenter for Filipino American performing arts, presents Jon Robin Baitz's adaptation of Henrik Ibsen's classic protofeminist play about the illusion of power among the social classes. Hedda Tesman, daughter of the late General Gabler, newly married and bored with both her marriage and life, is reunited with a past lover. This reignites a dormant spirit, setting into motion consequences as she attempts to influence a human fate for the first time. With Esperanza Catubig*, featuring Rose Almario, Ro Ambrosio Birco, Benjamin Couch, Julie Kuwabara, Alan S. Quismorio, and Earlena P. Somera.
This production is supported by the Asian Pacific Islander Cultural Center

ABOUT BINDLESTIFF STUDIO
In 1989, Bindlestiff Studio was established as a 52-seat black box theater that fed the underground experimental theater scene of the early 90s in San Francisco's South of Market (SOMA) District. This makes it the longest running theater arts organization in SOMA.
In 1997, the Filipino American theater group tongue-in-A-mood took over operations and transformed Bindlestiff Studio as the epicenter for Pilipino and Filipino American performing arts.
In 2003, Bindlestiff lost its theater to the San Francisco Redevelopment Agency (SFRA), which acquired its building to build the city's first green affordable housing project.
In September 2011, Bindlestiff Studio opened its new theater at its original location of 185 Sixth Street with the full support of the City of San Francisco and the San Francisco Redevelopment Agency.
Bindlestiff Studio provides Filipino Americans access to diverse offerings in performing arts in a district that is poised to infuse an exhilarating new cultural scene into San Francisco. Today, our organization serves and engages Pilipino and Filipino American artists of various arts disciplines, reaching over 1500 audience members annually. It continues to evolve as a theater for the community while developing into an innovative hothouse of new artists and creative, cutting-edge works.
