We are delighted to reveal the poster for our upcoming performance of 'The Seagull' by Anton Chekhov.

One of Chekhov’s finest pieces ‘The Seagull’ is set on the country estate of retiree Peter Sorin, who lives there with his niece and aspiring author Constantina Treplieff. Constantina has written a play that is soon to be performed by her love Nina Zarietchnaya, and witnessed by a varied mix of locals and visitors alike. But the audience members Constantina are the most nervous about are her mother Arkadina, and Arkadina’s lover, famous author Boris Trigorin. Little does Constantina know that writing this play will lead to a convoluted series of events resulting in both Nina’s downfall and her own.

Location: Platform 2 in Stephenson College

Dates: 25th and 26th of February starting at 7:30pm

Film opportunity:
Rocket! Theatre Company will be devising a film project this term. With the lockdown limiting activities we will be accepting film scripts, submissions closing on the 26th November. The chosen project will be of a devising style and so the submission has to be by no means be a finished and polished work of art. We want to see what ideas what kind of a story you’d like to tell through film and from there we will work with you and the production team to devise and produce the film. The finished product will be screened multiple times at a later date (following whatever government guidelines are in the future). Please send submissions to [email protected]. Whether you’re an experienced screen writer or have thought about giving it a go we encourage you to use this lockdown to see what you can come up with! And who knows it, might just end up being made into a film!
