Three Sisters: Modern Plays

Autor Anton Chekhov Traducere de Rory Mullarkey
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 feb 2025
Loneliness is a terrifying thing.

Three Sisters. Their brother, and his fiancé. The teacher, the doctor, the old woman, and the soldiers stationed nearby. A small town, in the middle of nowhere. Their world is going up in flames, one minute at a time. But can they create the change they're longing for?

A masterful study of family legacy, misdirected love and the human condition in the world premiere of a new translation by award-winning playwright and Russian speaker Rory Mullarkey.

This edition was published to coincide with the run at the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse at Shakespeare's Globe, London in January 2025.

Recenzii

A punky, funny, furious takedown of the cult of the classic... the piece never denies that Chekhov still speaks to us, it also questions its existence... loud, rude, provocative and, yes, messy - that's all part of its glorious defiance. Don't go expecting the pretty, predictable or polite. But do go. ????
A gloriously playful evening, stuffed with musical richness. If you know the original you will note how the company both honour its structure and smash it... it understands that each generation must take what they need from a play and that it must speak not to the past but to the millions of Olgas, Irinas and Mashas of today. Otherwise, why bother? ????
Less a take on the play than a music and movement-fuelled examination of why plays like this continue to be staged... some of the basic features of Chekhov's play remain, but RashDash push at its edges and mess with its mechanics... RashDash incisively skewers the privileged ennui of Chekhov's characters and the limited horizons the playwright imagined for his female protagonists. If the classics aren't for everyone, RashDash ask, then what are they for? ????
'Funny, furious - loud, rude, provocative and messy.'
