Reseña del editor:

National Theatre premiere for brand new version of Chekhov masterpiece in all-star production directed by Katie Mitchell Chekhov's magnificent tragi-comedy about the three Prozorov girls and their rapacious sister-in-law is revived at the National this autumn in a luminous new version by Nicholas Wright. Author of the award-winning Vincent in Brixton, Wright has also produced English versions of such classics as Ibsen's John Gabriel Borkman, Pirandello's Naked and Wedekind's Lulu. His own plays, with their carefully structured naturalism, make him an ideal English counterpart for Chekhov. Director Katie Mitchell is one of our most respected women directors. She has worked at the Royal Court, the National (staging Ted Hughes's version of The Oresteia) and at the Young Vic, where she directed Chekhov's Uncle Vanya. Casting for Three Sisters has yet to be completed but, as a National Theatre production, is bound to be starry,

Biografía del autor:

Anton Chekhov (1860-19040 is one of the world's greatest playwrights. His four masterpieces, The Seagull, Uncle Vanya, Three Sisters and The Cherry Orchard, are rarely absent from the stage. Indeed, this will be the second high-profile production of Three Sisters in London this year... Nicholas Wright's Vincent in Brixton won rave reviews at the National and in the West End last year and opens in New York in April. Earlier work includes the West End hit, Cressida, with Michael Gambon, Mrs Klein at the National Theatre and in the West End, and adaptations of John Gabriel Borkman (with Paul Scofield and Vanessa Redgrave), Naked with Juliette Binoche and Lulu with Anna Friel. All are published by NHB.
