Here, Anton Chekhov’s The Seagull is adapted by playwright Juan Ignacio Fernández with a cast of five actresses. The action is tighter and gets straight to the heart of the Russian writer’s words. In a confined, four-sided setting, the audience surround actresses Arkadina, Kostia, Masha, Nina, and Trigorin, who are seated at a simple worktable equipped with microphones. Set on the shores of a lake, this is the story of broken people, dreaming of a new theatrical art. Masha, mourning her life and usually a secondary character, now occupies a leading role. Guillermo Cacace explores what can still touch us today in this repertoire text, through an intimate, unique, and deeply moving performance.
