Rehearsal images have been released for The Seagull which opens at The Lyric Hammersmith on 11th October 2017, with previews from 3rd October 2017.

Unrequited love. Creative jealousy. Guns. Vodka. And Art. Chekhov’s celebrated masterpiece is given vibrant new life in this dynamic new version by Olivier-award winning playwright Simon Stephens directed by Sean Holmes.

Switching effortlessly between the ridiculous and the profound The Seagull forensically examines the transcendence and destructiveness of love. The burning need to create Art and how harshly that need can be crushed permeates this classic play.

       

The cast include: Adelayo Adedayo, Michele Austin, Lloyd Cooney, Nicholas Gleaves, Paul Higgins, Lloyd Hutchinson, Lesley Sharp, Cherrelle Skeete, Raphael Sowole, Nicolas Tennant and Brian Vernel.
