THREE SISTERS

KPGT

THREE SISTERSA general piece of Russian literature, theater, and civilization, Three Sisters by Anton Pavlovich Chekhov premiered on New Year's Eve directed by Ljubisa Ristic. The girls longing for Moscow and the officers abandoning them to go to the front are the fateful constants of Chekhov's and every Russia's life. Therefore, at KPGT, the first act of Three Sisters is set in a vaudeville from Tsarist Russia in the spring of 1901; the second act, as in Chekhov's play, is during Shrovetide, under white and red masks amidst the chaos of the Civil War in 1921; in the third act, we find Three Sisters during the fire of the Nazi West's attack on the Soviet Union in 1941; in the fourth act, the officers leave the city and the Three Sisters go to Ukraine in 2022. Farewell is on social media. The fifth act? Uncertain. Chekhov didn't write it. Just as HAMLET is a general piece of world theater and THE SUSPICIOUS CHARACTER is a general piece of our theater, so are THE THREE SISTERS a general guide from A.P. Chekhov for understanding Russian life, destiny, and myth.ORGANIZER/SOURCE: Association for the Development of Arts "VULPE"
