Anton Chekhov's first MAJOR success, THE SEAGULL is a razor-sharp portrait of people who mistake ambition for purpose and love for salvation.
At a HOUSE ON A LAKE, desire curdles into obsession, success breeds emptiness, and every relationship becomeS MANIPULATION, exposING the intoxicating and devastating cost of chasing relevance, validation, and artistic immortality.
in a dynamic new adaptation by director grant Sorenson, the seagull embraces tHE URGENCY AND MESSINESS OF CHEKHOV AS A YOUNG PLAYWRIGHT, stripping away 130 YEARS OF veneer to reveal the raw and racing heartbeat of this revolutionary tragicomedy.
