Emilia
Clarke (Game of Thrones) makes her West End debut in this 21st century retelling
of Anton Chekhov’s tale of love and loneliness.
A young
woman is desperate for fame and a way out. A young man is pining after the
woman of his dreams. A successful writer longs for a sense of achievement. An
actress wants to fight the changing of the times. In an isolated home in the
countryside, dreams lie in tatters, hopes are dashed, and hearts broken. With
nowhere left to turn, the only option is to turn on each other.
Following his
critically acclaimed five-star production of Cyrano de Bergerac, Jamie
Lloyd brings Anya Reiss’ adaptation of Anton Chekhov’s classic play to stage. Filmed
live in London’s West End with a cast including Tom Rhys Harries (White
Lines), Daniel Monks (The Normal Heart), Sophie Wu (Fresh Meat)
and Indira Varma (Game of Thrones).
