SEAGULLS | Volcano Theatre

A young girl has lived all her life by a lake. Like a seagull, she loves the lake, and shes happy and free. But a man comes along and wrecks her life for want of anything better to do.

Volcanos astonishing, visceral version of Chekhovs The Seagull is performed in a spectacular setting within a decaying church.

Five lost souls climb walls and swing on ropes, fall in and out of love, dance to a sensational soundtrack, play games, get wet and fight duels.

An impossibly sad, unreasonably funny and ludicrously inventive version of a temperamental Russian classic.
