The Seagull

About the Production
TCT's 2015 interpretation of The Seagull by Anton Chekhov, a co-production with Crow's Theatre, received a sold-out run. At a country estate, the famous actress Arkadina presides over a household brimming with unrequited love, artistic ambition, and hidden jealousies. Her son Konstantin, an aspiring playwright, yearns for her approval and the love of the beautiful Nina. When the celebrated writer Trigorin arrives, passions ignite and hearts are broken in Chekhov's timeless meditation on art, love, and human frailty.
Adaptation: Robert Falls adaptation, translated by George Calderon
