Three Sisters

Written by Anton Chekhov

Directed by Neil Blackadder

Written in 1901, Three Sisters is set in a provincial 19th-century Russian town. While three sisters long to return to Moscow, the imperial capital, their lives intersect with those of the military officers and others who frequent their home. The Knox production of Three Sisters is using the translation by Kristin Johnsen-Neshati. “Chekhov’s dramatic realism captures how ordinary men and women live, love, work, and hope. His characters experience a full range of emotional outcomes, from heart-warming through disappointing to devastating.”
