About
The Seagull is a play by Anton Chekhov staged at the candlelit Sam Wanamaker Playhouse in London. Director Caroline Steinbeis and translator Rory Mullarkey, who together made the 2025 production of Three Sisters, reunite for this timeless story of ambition and desire, inspired by Shakespeare's Hamlet. On a rural estate, the lives of four people intersect: the middlebrow writer Boris Trigorin, the ingenue Nina, the washed-up actress Irina Arkadina, and her son Konstantin Treplev, a brooding experimental playwright. When Konstantin falls in love with Nina while staging a play on his uncle's estate, but she is drawn to Trigorin, his mother's lover, a thrilling psychological drama follows.
