‘You won’t be here. Not in thirty years. You’ll have had a stroke, or I’ll have shot you. It’ll be one or the other.’
Three sisters. Three thousand miles from home. Overworked Olga, wild Masha and idealistic Irina dream of returning. Living in a world of deceit, desire and hard drinking it’s difficult but is there something else holding them back?
Reinterpreted for the 21st century by Anya Reiss, this is a searing new version of Chekhov’s masterpiece.
Press for The Seagull:
‘Fresh, colloquial, sexy and downright perceptive’ The Telegraph
‘in a year of remarkable Chekhov revivals, this Seagull flies with the best’ The Guardian
‘As emotionally honest and heartfelt a production as the author could have hoped’ The Times
