Chekhov's celebrated masterpiece is given vibrant new life in this dynamic new version by Olivier award-winning playwright Simon Stephens.

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 throughout the play.

Simon Stephen's new adaption of The Seagull received its premiere at the Lyric Hammersmith, London on 3 October 2017.

Industry Reviews

...an incisive 21st-century version of Chekhov. **** -- The Guardian
'... something genuinely moving and at times euphoric'. * Fatherland review, The Stage *
'There's something generously honest in Heisenberg about ordinariness. With humour and a low-level ache of sadness, it tunes into those small, often overlooked encounters that can spin people's lives off in new directions'. * Heisenberg review, The Stage *
Classics are there to be reinvented, and the risks that this reinvention takes involve no loss of Chekhovian essence while adding a lot in terms of characters that a 2017 audience might relate to. -- The Radio Times
