Discover the humor and heartbreak of one of the world's greatest plays, revealed through the lyricism of Sarah Ruhl, two-time Pulitzer Prize nominated playwright of Eurydice and In The Next Room (The Vibrator Play).
Times are changing, innocence is being lost, dreams and ambitions change throughout lifetimes. Three Sisters long to escape the dull suburban life they have been living, and yearn for the old life of Moscow - where they imagine their lives will be transformed and fulfilled. The eldest sister an "old maid" school teacher, the middle sister an unhappily married wife who has wandered outside her marriage, and the youngest sister an idealist: Three Sisters is the portrait of a family grappling with the bittersweet distance between reality and dreams set during the 1960’s.
