Seagull

ERS’s take on Anton Chekhov’s The Seagull reimagines the classic drama by blurring the line between a play and a frank chat with the audience. Actors become characters becoming actors becoming characters and truth is twisted into lies and, ultimately, into a truthful rendering of the text. The performance features ERS’s signature choreography and a richly layered sound design.
