About The Seagull
The Seagull at the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse presents Chekhov’s twentieth century classic on stage. The story follows an actress, her lover, her playwright son and an aspiring performer, set in a house by a lake.
What begins as a play within a play becomes a tale of art, ego and love. Caroline Steinbeis directs and Rory Mullarkey translates, returning to the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse after Three Sisters.
Inspired by Shakespeare’s Hamlet, this is the first of Chekhov’s four major plays.
