One of the most lauded and beloved Broadway plays of recent years, this beguiling farce weaves Chekhovian themes into a mad-cap weekend of costumes, prophecies and existential longing ...
It's set in a Pennsylvania farmhouse where Vanya and his adopted sister Sonia live a quiet life
Until, that is, their peace is suddenly disturbed when movie-star sister Masha returns unannounced with her twenty-something-toy-boy, Spike
And so begins a weekend of rivalry, regret, and raucousness!
