About the Show

In this contemporary retelling of Chekhov's "Three Sisters," four actresses and two musicians set out to compose their version of the drama. Note: this show will be performed in Portuguese with English Supertitles.

From the show:

Written among the vestiges of the original play, it explores the theme of the difficulty of resisting the erosion of life and dreams by the action of time. Revisiting the drama of the three Chekhovian sisters who dream of returning to Moscow, the lost paradise, without ever succeeding, we are faced with questions that resonate perfectly with today’s world.

Well played, Tuneful, Engaging, Thoughtful, Humanly perceptive

See it if you’d like an engaging, almost contemplative (& simplified) update of a Chekhov classic, with lots of style & tasty music.

Don't see it if you’re hoping for “Three Sisters” done pretty straight. Read more
