Three Sisters

In a rural backwater, three sisters dream of a better life and of returning to the Moscow of their childhood.

Irina longs for purpose, Masha for passion and Olga for some peace.

Set across four life-defining years, Chekhov’s tragicomic masterpiece explores the hopes, loves and sacrifices of three brilliant young women and the people they encounter.

When society is falling apart at the seams, can people still go on living, loving and laughing?
