Nikolai has forgotten how to be happy. Or was he ever? Is it just burnout? He’s married to the perfect woman, he’s had a successful career: he should be heading into mid-life feeling confident and settled. Sure, there’s some debts piling up, and his wife has been laid low with unexplained illnesses recently but they’ve jumped bigger hurdles before. What exactly is gnawing at him? Why does the world feel like it’s falling apart? Maybe he just needs to shake it off. There’s a party at the Lebedevs tonight!
Can Nikolai save his marriage, his will to live, and his career all at once? Or was it always destined to go tits up?
Simon Stone brings Chekhov’s keenly observed comic drama hurtling into the contemporary world, joined by the same creative team that brought the The Lady From The Sea to life.
Written and directed by Simon Stone (The Lady From The Sea, Yerma, Phaedra), starring Chris Pine (Star Trek, Wonder Woman, Top Gun: Maverick, Hell or High Water) in his London Stage Debut.
