Chekhov's Family Dramedy Three Sisters
One of Anton Chekhov's masterworks, Three Sisters is a humorous and affecting tale that centers around the once-privileged members of the Prozorov family. After the death of their army general father, three sisters feel constrained by the smallness of life in their provincial Russian town. Attempts to improve their crumbling social status lay bare the larger forces that loom over the entire area. Melodrama turned inside out, Three Sisters is a story of yearning and ordinary life -- where little seems to happen, but all is revealed. Directed by Lavina Jadhwan and translation by former Oregon Shakespeare Festival artistic director Libby Appel, this luminous and emotionally raw retelling of Chekhov's masterpiece comes to A.C.T's Strand Theater in San Francisco, presented by A.C.T.'s Master of Fine Arts Program.
