Steve Carell leads a star studded cast in Anton Chekhov’s UNCLE VANYA.
Sonia and her uncle Vanya have devoted their lives to managing the family farm in isolation, but when her celebrated, ailing father and his charismatic wife move in, their lives are upended. In the heat of the summer, the wrong people fall in love, desires and resentments erupt, and the family is forced to reckon with the ghosts of their unlived lives.
Director Lila Neugebauer (The Waverly Gallery, The Wolves) and playwright Heidi Schreck (What the Constitution Means to Me) collaborate on the premiere of this Lincoln Center Theater production of Uncle Vanya, which pairs Anton Chekhov‘s enduring masterpiece with one of America’s most celebrated contemporary playwrights in a strikingly immediate new translation.
