ABOUT
Direct from a sold-out run in London, Andrew Scott (Ripley, All of Us Strangers) brings to life multiple characters in Tony Award® winner Simon Stephens' (The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time) radical new version of Anton Chekhov's Uncle Vanya.
Comedic and tragic, Chekhov's examination of our shared humanity - our hopes, dreams, regrets - is thrust into sharp focus in this production co-created by acclaimed director Sam Yates.
VANYA explores the kaleidoscope of human emotions, harnessing the power of the intimate bond between actor and audience to delve deeper into the human psyche.
CAST & CREATIVE
★★★★★
Wry, confiding, often archly funny, very sexy and wrenchingly sad. This one-man Vanya is a revelation and a sensation.
★★★★★
This is a beautiful, heartbreaking response to Chekhov’s tragicomedy. Scott is superb- brilliantly subtle, witty and precise. Tremendous.
★★★★★
Wow. This astonishing version of Chekhov’s Uncle Vanya is a tour-de-force. It is so full of feeling and empathy that you cannot quite believe that you are actually watching a single man sitting alone, holding the arm of a chair. It is a great achievement.
★★★★★
Andrew Scott gives a superhuman turn in this deeply emotional solo version of the Chekhov masterpiece.
It is a truly remarkable stage performance, that seems to go beyond acting and on to something like a shamanic act of empathy.
★★★★★
Andrew Scott’s one -man Chekhov is the performance of the year.
★★★★★
This is a project of exquisite substance that reconfirms Andrew Scott is one of the finest performers of his generation. A mesmerising masterclass in acting; he’s sensational.
