Gulls

The Theatre @ Boston Court presents the World Premiere of Gulls, a musical freely based on Chekhov’s The Seagull. Book and lyrics are by Nick Salamone, music is by Maury McIntyre, and the play is directed by Jessica Kubzansky, The Theatre @ Boston Court’s co-artistic director.

It’s 1959 Greenwich Village and Hollywood, and a family of troubled dreamers yearns for love, immortality and survival. Irenie, a glamorous Broadway star, Gore, her novelist/screenwriter lover, Conrad, her Beat poet son, and Nina, the lovely young African-American everyone loves, engage in an epic struggle for passion and connection in this haunting new musical, rich with Chekhovian longing.
