Set in a house by a lake, it follows an actress, her lover, her playwright son and an aspiring performer as a play within a play gives way to a story of art, ego and love.
The Seagull is the first of Chekhov’s four major plays and was inspired by Shakespeare’s Hamlet. Caroline Steinbeis and Rory Mullarkey return to the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse as director and translator.
