A brilliant tragicomedy of human folly and frustration, The Seagull turns a penetrating and clear-sighted mirror onto turn-of-the-century Russian society. In the masterwork that heralded his triumph as a playwright, Chekhov spotlights life and art. His tale of sex, celebrity, and inspiration continues to reveal as much about audiences today as it did at its sensational 1898 opening. Locus Theatre Company's retelling of The Seagull, which commemorates Chekhov's 150th landmark birthday, brings these parallels into sharp focus.
