Uncle Vanya

A refreshingly intimate and modern spin on a Chekhovian classic. "Devastatingly beautiful. . . . People are going to be talking about this one for years."? The Village Voice One of the most-produced playwrights in the United States, Annie Baker lends her truthful observation and elegant command of the colloquial to Chekhov's despairing masterpiece. A critical hit in its sold-out Off-Broadway premiere, this contemporary telling is "the most intimate and engaging exploration of Chekhov's bleak comedy since André Gregory's Vanya on 42nd Street" (Bloomberg News). Annie Baker's works include The Aliens(Obie Award), Body Awareness, Circle Mirror Transformation(Obie Award), Nocturama, and The Flick. Recent honors include a New York Drama Critics Circle Special Citation, Susan Smith Blackburn Prize nomination, Time Warner Storytelling Fellowship, MacDowell Fellowship and commissions from Center Theater Group and Playwrights Horizons.
