Uncle Vanya
By Anton Chekhov
Adapted by Annie Baker
Working with a literal translation by Margarita Shalina and the original Russian text
Directed by Kayla Adams

You know, I used to think that being a creep meant you were sick or abnormal, but lately I’ve come to the conclusion that we’re all creeps. Everyone in the world, behaving naturally, is a complete creep.

Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Annie Baker brings her observational prowess and razor-sharp wit to an intimate adaptation of Chekhov's beloved dark comedy. Written with the “goal of creating a version that sounds to our contemporary American ears the way it sounded to Russian ears during the play’s first productions in the provinces in 1898,” Annie Baker’s Uncle Vanya captures the timeless longing, absurdity, and beauty of human relationships.
