Three Sisters
By Anton Chekhov
Directed and adapted by Imogen de la Bere
17th - 27th November 2010
OVO @ Pudding Lane, St Albans
As delicate as a string quartet, as sinewy as a rope, Three Sisters charts the tragic unravelling of hope.
The three women of the title dream of culture, and long to escape from their stultifying lives in the sticks.
Although grounded in the Russia of 1900, the play speaks of the universal human desire for love and freedom, and an indefinably better life.
A new version of the play by Imogen de la Bere aims to evoke the wider European context through beautiful and atmospheric music and design.
