About This Event
In a crumbling old farmhouse in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, sibling non-achievers, Vanya and Sonia, wait for the daily visit of the blue heron while mourning their lost dreams and missed opportunities. When their often-wrong, fortune-telling maid warns of impending dangers, and their movie star sister, Masha, arrives unexpectedly with young, sexy, boy toy, Spike, the family is launched into a rollicking weekend of one-upmanship, exposed nerves, and a lot of broken mugs. With wit and absurdity, Christopher Durang’s Tony Award-winning Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike blends Chekhov’s famous ennui and restlessness with the modern-day toils and troubles of celebrity, social networking, and aging into a laugh-out-loud comedy that will tickle your funny bone and stimulate your mind.
Directed by Tracy Arnold
