The Seagull
By Anton Chekhov
Directed & Adapted by Zoe Senese-Grossberg
It’s hot, it’s sticky, the days are long, you're in the middle of nowhere, and are smarter and more talented than all the people you're stuck here with. Set in the Hamptons in the late 1960s, this new adaptation of Chekhov’s renowned tragicomedy interrogates the play's conception of power and gender by the actors playing Konstantin and Nina switching roles halfway through. Performed outdoors in a brownstone backyard, this show asks: who is allowed to make art, and is it ever any good?
The Seagull performed August 10-13, 2023 in a private backyard in Park Slope, NYC.
