Nashville Repertory Theatre is proud to present its newest production Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike, the delightfully hilarious Tony Award-winning comedy. Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike runs April 9-25, 2015 at Andrew Johnson Theater at Tennessee Performing Arts Center.

Sonia and Vanya have frittered their lives away in the family farmhouse, spending their mornings wondering why things didn't go the way they were supposed to. Enter their sister, fading movie star Masha, who plans to sell the family home and put Sonia and Vanya out to pasture. Toss in Masha's brand-new 20-something boy-toy Spike, a cleaning woman cursed with the power of prophecy and a neighborhood costume party that turns everything upside down, and the stage is set for one hilarious weekend in the country. This production is recommended for high school and above.
