Chekhov’s 130-year-old masterpiece gets a contemporary twist, set against a rural vineyard backdrop.
Sonny and his Uncle Vanya have spent years keeping the family estate running to support Sonny’s father, the celebrated novelist Alex Serebryakov. When Alex returns with his much younger wife, years of quiet sacrifice and buried resentment bubble to the surface.
Adapted by Andrew Foster and starring Tawhi Thomas, Jonny Potts, Peter Hambleton, Kali Kopae, Andrew Paterson and Carmel McGlone.
Don’t miss this groundbreaking classic, reimagined for a new generation, and still as funny and devastating today as ever.
