Uncle Vanya

Written by Anton Chekhov Translated by Conor McPherson Presented by Bath Drama

In this adaptation of Chekhov's play by Conor McPherson, Sonya and her Uncle Vanya have managed a Russian estate for many years on behalf of Sonya's father. His arrival with his alluring young wife Yelena, full of plans for the estate now he has been retired from his professorial job in Moscow, is the catalyst for change and upset. Dr Astrov, the local doctor and a regular visitor, is a committed environmentalist and he, too, is disturbed by the visitors. This is Chekhov's great play of quiet desperation, unrequited love and frustrated lives, but also of the importance of belonging.
