Fully-Immersive Production of Chekhov's THREE SISTERS Runs in Brooklyn, Now thru Sept 28

Highly Impractical Theatre will produce a fully immersive production of Chekhov's THREE SISTERS in a magnificent historic building in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn. The show runs tonight, September 4 through Sunday, September 28.

Re-imagined in a dystopian mid-21st Century Brooklyn where economic inequality and police surveillance have become the dominant social realities, audiences for Three Sisters are invited to seek refuge with the Prozorov family as they sing, dance, and philosophize their way through the night following actors through a magnificent historic building in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn.

Built into the theatrical production is a social experiment. Tickets range from 99¢ to $99 as audiences can choose their own experience of the play by purchasing tickets by class levels. Tickets can be purchased online at: http://hittheatrethreesisters.bpt.me or at the venue, starting 30 minutes prior to curtain.

Experiences range from working alongside the servants as a Serf ($0.99 a ticket) and entering through the "Poor Door" of the building, to a luxury experience as a Tsar ($99 per ticket) where you will be showered with gifts and enjoy the finest seats in the building. Discounts are given for returning Audience members so that they can experience the full social spectrum of the play.

Three Sisters is directed by Elana McKelahan and features scenic design by Ventiko, costume design by Misha Pyle, lighting design by Jonathan Cottle, sound design by Gahyae Ryu, props design by Machel Ross and original music by Stephen Bennett.

The talented cast includes Karin Agstam, Rebecca Behrens, Gabriel Christian, Carolina Do, Andy Ingalls, Meridith Jones, Camara McLaughlin, Terrence Montgomery, Thomas Muccioli, Stacy Salvette, Eliza Simpson, Mac Wallach and Akyiaa Wilson.

Highly Impractical Theatre, a Brooklyn-based organization that creates site-specific theatre that is bold, immersive, and experiential. We produce and develop socially relevant plays for unconventional spaces and engage audiences in an active, sensory experience of stories. In the past we have created plays inspired by and performed in exhibits at the Brooklyn Museum, transformed the daily grind of the offices of a San Francisco marketing firm into surreal adventures, and brought to life the history of a small town in Oregon by inhabiting its founding farmstead.
