Uncle Vanya
A masterpiece of Russian literature in a new adaptation from critically-acclaimed playwright Annie Baker, author of Body Awareness, Mirror Circle Transformation, and The Flick. Written with the "goal of creating a version that sounds to our contemporary American ears the way the play sounded to Russian ears during the play's first productions in the provinces in 1898," Ms. Baker's Uncle Vanya gives 21st- century audiences new insight into Chekhov's enduring wit, insight, and emotional depth.
REVIEWS: "Annie Baker's colloquial version of Chekhov's Uncle Vanya is more than a modern-dress treatment of a classic work. It's a fresh rethinking of the material from the perspective of a modern mind." - Variety "The most intimate and engaging exploration of Chekhov's bleak comedy since Andre Gregory's Vanya on 42nd Street more than 20 years ago." - Bloomberg News "a soul-satisfying Uncle Vanya." - Philadelphia Inquirer "Chekhov's 1898 masterpieceas low-frills, intimate and homemade as possible." - The New York Times
