Lucy Caldwell
Anton Chekhov
Adapted from a literal translation by Helen Rappaport.
This version of Chekhov's classic is relocated from a Russian town in 1900 to East Belfast in the 1990s.
Three sisters, Orla, Marianne and Erin, dream of escaping their tedious suburban lives for a fresh start in America. It is Erin's eighteenth birthday and, as the sun shines and guests assemble, everything for a fleeting moment seems possible.
