Tony and Olivier-winning OHenry Productions, in association with Dennis Trunfio, Rebecca Gold, and The Cohn Sisters, is thrilled to announce a final one-week extension of Anton Chekhov’s Uncle Vanya staged by rising-star director Jack Serio in a private loft in the Flatiron District. The encore engagement of the production, which originally opened on July 6, will now close on Sunday, September 3, 2023. A new block of tickets will go on sale at noon on Friday, August 11 at www.vanyanyc.com.
Tony-winner David Cromer as Vanya leads this production that features Will Brill as Astrov, Julia Chan as Yelena, Will Dagger as Telegin, Tony-nominee Marin Ireland as Sonya, Ann McDonough as Maria, two-time Drama Desk winner Thomas Jay Ryan as Serebryakov,and Virginia Wing as Marina. The ensemble includes Dario Ladani Sanchez (Yefim, understudy for Astrov/Telegin), Raquel Chavez (understudy for Sonya/Yelena/Yefim), Nat DeWolf (understudy for Vanya/Serebryakov), and Barbara Kingsley (understudy for Maria/Marina).
Uncle Vanya sees the lives of Sonya, her uncle, and a visiting doctor disrupted by the arrival of Sonya’s father, Professor Serebryakov, and his restless new wife, the beautiful Yelena. Using Paul Schmidt's “warm, seamless, and contemporary” (The New York Times) translation, Serio stages a “fly-on-the-wall, hyper-intimate” (Forbes) new production of Chekhov’s masterpiece at a loft in the Flatiron District. Tony-winner David Cromer leads an all-star cast in a radical new staging that highlights the immediacy and profound humanity of Chekhov's enduring classic.
The creative team for Uncle Vanya includes Walt Spangler (scenic design), Ricky Reynoso (costume design), Stacey Derosier (lighting design), Christopher Darbassie (sound design), Carrie Mossman (props design), Richard A. Hodge (stage manager), Nathan Malin (assistant stage manager), Taylor Williams (casting director), Cameron Kasky and Christian Palomares (associate producers), Wagner Johnson Productions (general manager), and Feast Creative (graphic design). David Manella at Loeb & Loeb LLP serves as Production Counsel.
