Following the death of their army officer father, the Moscow-born and bred Prozorov siblings find themselves living in a remote provincial town, trapped inside the memories of their glorious past. Only the proximity of a nearby artillery post and the company of its officers make their existence bearable. As they fumble for purpose amidst the clutter of awkward suitors, clumsy birthday presents, absurd squabbles, and raging house fires, only one desire remains undimmed: to return to Moscow! Part of the company's first annual New York Chekhov Festival, which also includes lectures, talk backs, and other events.
