The Seagull
Between Thursday 23 October 2025 and Sunday 26 October 2025
A brand-new adaptation of Chekhov's seminal melancholic comedy about a group of dysfunctional arty types who gather to see the premiere of Konstantin's new play, while being in love with the wrong person. So when his mother's lover starts forming a relationship with his girlfriend, it all goes downhill. Oh, and there's a gun. And a seagull.
Content Warning: mentions of child bereavement, suicide, and suicidal ideation, particularly in the later acts. Additionally, the play contains themes of unfulfilled ambitions, unrequited love, and the complexities of artistic success. Smoke effects and gunshots.
No seagulls were harmed in the making of this production.
