The Three Sisters at Skirball Cultural Center

A bittersweet, serio-comic family drama set against the decay of the privileged class in Russia at the turn of the twentieth century. The Prozorovs - Olga, Masha, Irina, and their brother Andrei - who spent their refined and cultured youth in Moscow, have been living for more than a decade in a small, colorless provincial town where their now-deceased father, a military general, had been transferred. Over time, their shared dream of returning to the more urbane life in the capital erodes, as the ordinariness of daily living gradually tightens its grip on them.
