Sandy Springs, GA -- North Springs Charter High School’s noted Drama Magnet will open its winter show, Hedda Gabler, on Thursday in its Black Box Theater.

The show, which kicks off at 7:30 p.m. Jan. 21, is a modern adaptation of Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen’s classic of realism, 19th century theater and world drama.

The title character, Hedda, played by North Springs’ junior and Governor’s honors theater semifinalist Carolyn Friedman, is considered one of the great dramatic roles in theater and has been portrayed on stage and in film by many prominent actresses.

Evening performances are scheduled for 7:30 p.m. on Jan. 21-23 and Jan. 28-30; with a matinee performance at 3 p.m. Jan. 31.

All performances will be in the school’s smaller, more intimate Black Box Theater. Tickets are $5 for students, $15 for adults and $20 for VIP seating. They are available for purchase online at www.northspringstickets.com.
