Set in the last decades of Tsarist Russia and considered by many to be one of Chekhov’s four major plays – along with Uncle Vanya, TheThree Sisters, and The Cherry Orchard – The Seagull follows a young playwright in love with an aspiring actress who identifies herself as a “seagull” flying over their enchanted lake. A brilliant examination of self-centered characters trapped by their love of misery, this masterpiece will encourage those who make choices in life and struggle to truly live.
