About
About The Seagull
The Seagull plays at the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse. Chekhov’s twentieth-century classic is set in a house by a lake and follows an actress, her lover, her playwright son and an aspiring performer. What begins as a play within a play becomes a story about art, ego and love.
Caroline Steinbeis and Rory Mullarkey, who worked on Three Sisters at the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse, return as director and translator. This is Chekhov’s first of his four major plays, and it is inspired by Shakespeare’s Hamlet.
