Uncle Vanya Paperback / softback

Part of the Modern Plays series

Paperback / softback

Description

David Lan's new version of one of Chekhov's greatest plays, was commissioned for a co-production between the Royal Shakespeare Company and the Young Vic.

Directed by Katie Mitchell, it premiered at the Young Vic, London, in March 1998, a century after its Uncle Vanya is the first of Chekhov's three great masterpieces.

Set on a remote farm in the Ukraine, it tells of two obsessive love affairs that lead nowhere, and a flirtation that brings disaster.

Written towards the end of the 1890s, it casts a diamond-hard glance towards our century."A notably sharp, bright translation" (The Times)
