First Look Festival

This year, Classic Stage Company’s “one night only” staged reading series turns its gaze to the work of Anton Chekhov. Reconnect with the rich dramatic universe of Russia’s greatest playwright as CSC brings together his four master works – The Seagull, Uncle Vanya, Three Sisters, and The Cherry Orchard – in a rare festival setting where you can experience the full impact of their culminative power.

The First Look series is presented on Monday evenings from January 22 through February 12, 2007.
