About the Show
In this live cinema remake of Chekhov’s masterpiece of theatre about the theatre, the love lives of four artists intertwine and unravel as cameras document their intimate interactions. In the middle, Konstantin has a vision for the future of theatre – it needs new forms, or it should cease to exist altogether.
Directed by Benjamin Schostakowski (Metamorphosis) in a partnership with AFTRS, The Seagull is a moving examination of the artist in life and in love.
