A young girl seeks fame at any cost, and her life and psyche are irrevocably destroyed. A famous man feels betrayed and disenchanted with his public life and finds unhealthy outlets to deal with his frustrations. A famous woman puts her career first, neglects her son, and loses touch with her ability to nurture and parent. This is the story of Chekhov’s masterpiece The Seagull, one of the most classic and utterly contemporary plays in modern drama — which still rings true 115 years after it was first performed. This production will be modernized and staged on the set of a reality TV show,  illuminating and examining the effects that fame has on the human psyche and exploring the veiled parts of the human spirit.

Doors open 30 minutes before curtain.

General seating.  Latecomers will be seated at the discretion of the house manager.
