SAKURA-After Chekov at Centaur Theatre

Centaur Theatre proudly kicks off its fall season with the world premiere of Sakura – After Chekhov. 
 

Set against the vibrant backdrop of contemporary Quebec, Sakura - After Chekhov tells the poignant tale of an aristocratic family grappling with the impending sale of their cherished estate, including an orchard full of memories, to alleviate growing financial burdens. Standjofski’s adaptation skillfully preserves the heart of Chekhov’s original while infusing it with fresh, modern elements that resonate with today’s audiences. The play explores heritage, loss, and the relentless passage of time, blending humor with heartfelt introspection.
