Perhaps this didn’t translate well

This kind of play has outlived its time. The story is not for today’s tastes. The actors all shouted and overacted. Hedda’s husband sounded like a woman with a low voice. The judge was the most natural but even he could not overcome the last terrible line of this awful play.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
