Nothing's new Everything's old. I'm exactly the same as ever Only more lazy More aimless More curmudgeonly...' One of the high points of world drama, Chekhov's bittersweet tale of frustrated lives and unrequited loves - by turns witty, playful, nostalgic and tragic - is captured in all its complexity by Bryony Lavery's spirited, sharply-written adaptation, first produced at Birmingham Rep in 2007.
A tale of obsessive love that leads nowhere and a flirtation that brings disaster."Nothing's new Everything's old. I'm exactly the same as ever Only more lazy More aimless More curmudgeonly...'

...a vital and vibrant production that remains highly respectful of its source material... Chekhov would cheer. * Evening Standard *
