Description

Immerse yourself in Chekhov’s impassioned story about the absurdity of life,  meticulously told through a combination of words, music, and movement. This Uncle Vanya is about what people think and what they admit to only in moments of emotional turmoil. At times tongue-tied or overly brutal, the characters break out in revelations fervently, just as a man breaks out of a stuffy room into the open air. Gorgeously captured with alternating close-ups and full-stage shots, this magnificent production staged by celebrated director Rimas Tuminas at Moscow’s Vakhtangov Theatre is a sight to behold.

In Russian with English subtitles. Includes one fifteen-minute intermission.

Co-presented with Russian Toronto Life
