Three Sisters
by Anton Chekhov
Translation by Curt Columbus

What is keeping these three promising sisters from getting to Moscow?

Raised with the utmost standards of refinement and taste, Olga, Masha and Irina cling desperately to vivid memories of the thriving Moscow they left as children. The play, in a thrilling new translation by Curt Columbus, begins on the anniversary of their father’s death. Feeling suffocated and unable to bear the triviality of their lives, the sisters endeavor to fill them with excitement. Tempers flare, and appetites go unchecked, eliciting feral and treacherous responses which turn this proper Prozorov home into an emotional minefield.

…intensely appealing... smoldering sexual energy.
Chicago Tribune

Maybe they’re just talking about… wanting to go to Moscow, but Chekhov lets us hear the resonances of regret and longing and disappointed hope that evoke the whole culture of Russia in his time.
The Boston Globe
