Part of the Theatre from London Series: Emilia Clarke (GAME OF THRONES) made her West End debut in this 21st century retelling of Anton Chekhov’s tale of love and loneliness. A young woman is desperate for fame and a way out. A young man is pining after the woman of his dreams. A successful writer longs for a sense of achievement. An actress wants to fight the changing of the times. In an isolated home in the countryside, dreams lie in tatters, hopes are dashed, and hearts broken. With nowhere left to turn, the only option is to turn on each other.

Following his critically acclaimed five-star production of CYRANO DE BERGERAC, Jamie Lloyd brings Anya Reiss' adaptation of Chekhov’s classic play to stage. Filmed live in London’s West End with a cast including Tom Rhys Harries (WHITE LINES), Daniel Monks (THE NORMAL HEART), Sophie Wu (FRESH MEAT) and Indira Varma (GAME OF THRONES).

The Starlight Room has only 46 seats; advance tickets recommended. The theatre opens at least 30 minutes, and up to 45 minutes in advance. Please arrive early in order to secure your preferred seats, especially for parties of 2 or more.
