In a fading estate, love, ambition, and jealousy collide as characters face unfulfilled dreams.
Chekhov’s masterpiece arrives at St. Ann’s Warehouse after a critically acclaimed run at London’s Donmar Warehouse, directed by Benedict Andrews (Streetcar Named Desire at St. Ann’s, 2016). Anchored by Nina Hoss (Homeland) and BAFTA-winner Adeel Akhtar, the international cast remains visible on a perpetually lit stage, neutralizing class distinctions and universalizing the experience of loss.
Set in a crumbling family estate, this powerful drama explores love, ambition, and jealousy as characters confront unfulfilled dreams, with the actors free to improvise and inhabit a home on the brink of vanishing.
