Anton Chekhov: Three Sisters Director: David Leveaux
Olga, Masha and Irina are three sisters who share the same burning desire … to return to Moscow, the city of their birth.
Trapped in a provincial town deep in the Russian countryside, after the death of their army father, they dream of a life in the city: a whirl of glamour, stimulation and love. As the years pass, will they succumb to a life of quiet desperation and compromise? Or will they find a way to escape and fulfill their dream?
Chekhov's great drama of ideals and illusions is brought to life in this new version by Brian Friel.
