View show details

Art imitates life in this story, as the young actress playing Nina in Chekhov’s The Seagull seizes her romantic destiny by using her staged kiss each evening to seduce her very famous – and very married - leading man.

Exploring ambition, responsibility, and the gulf that can exist between the person we project and our true self, this is a study of possibility and of personal agency in the moral choices we make.

Most relevant

Intricately plotted metafiction woven around Chekhov play. Final scene is stunning. I can highly recommend.

Remarkable sexy moral tale
