On a forsaken estate, where for years routine work and unseen devotion have ruled, the rhythm of life suddenly shifts: the elderly professor arrives with his young wife, and the familiar world is shaken. Everything long kept in the heart and left unspoken bursts out; the characters confront their disappointment and the question they never dared ask: what's left for me? Anton Chekhov, one of the most influential voices in modern drama, knew how to portray with delicacy and precision the human pain that lies between dream and reality. The play was published in 1897, and two years later staged at the Moscow Art Theatre, directed by Konstantin Stanislavski (who also played the role of Astrov). Over the years the play has received many productions in Israel and around the world. In the current production we chose to cast the characters in a contemporary light, in which daily routine merges with unfulfilled dreams and new hope peeking through the dust. Running time: about two hours and 20 minutes, including intermission.
