Dark satire in the Russian countryside

Directed by Alex Rigozzi

Written by Anton Chekhov

A dramatic play about the romantic and artistic conflicts between: the ingenue Nina, the fading actress Irina Arkadina, her son the symbolist playwright Konstantin Treplyov, and the famous middlebrow story writer Trigorin. Chekhov’s masterpiece is a fascinating study and satire of artistic ambition and its consequences. The Seagull is renowned for the ambiguity of its tone and the emotional depth of its characters.
