About the play

In early 20th century Russia, as the storm clouds of Revolution gather, the lives of the well-to-do are under threat. The three Prosorov sisters, living in the provinces, pin their future happiness and the chance of a perfect life on a planned return to Moscow. But faced with dramatic social changes their dreams recede and they must find new meaning in their lives.


In this powerful play, a landmark of modern drama, Chekhov masterfully interweaves character and theme in subtle ways, building to a climax that is deeply moving.
