The Seagull Av Anton Chekhov

<p>- <i>Idea for a story. A beautiful young girl lives by a lake all her life. She loves this lake. She''s happy and free, like that bird was once. Then a man comes along and for no reason at all... what do you think he does?</i><br><br><i>- He destroys her.</i><br>A story about how we make stories, a story about unrequited love, <i>The Seagull </i>is one of the great plays of the modern era. Chekhov explores emotion and creativity with the clarity of a doctor and the heart of a poet.<br><br> John Donnelly''s version of Anton Chekhov''s <i>The Seagull</i> premiered in a Headlong and The Nuffield, Southampton co-production, in association with Derby Playhouse. The play opened in April 2013, followed by a UK tour.</p>
