Chekhov is alive and well in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, where adult siblings Vanya and Sonia reside in their old family home, 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! Wit and absurdity blends Chekhov’s famous ennui with the modern-day toils and troubles of celebrity, social networking, and age. With an outstanding cast including Erina Daniels, Rachel Henry, Emma Kinane, Simon Leary, Harriet Prebble and Chapman Tripp award winner, Gavin Rutherford, this laugh-out- loud comedy will tickle your funny bone and stimulate your mind.

Original cast members included Sigourney

Weaver (Masha) and David Hyde Pierce (Vanya).

“We get too few comedies on Broadway, much less ones with the breezy wit and satirical bite of the one. Like the play’s characters, I’M SO HAPPY THAT I CAN’T STOP COMPLAINING!”

- Time Out, NY

“It leaves the audience in tears of laughter!”

- The Huffington Post

“The loudest laughter heard on Broadway in

many years! The audience roars with glee
