In the audience are Konstantin’s mother, successful actress Irina Arkadina, and her lover, famous writer Boris Trigorin. Konstantin is hoping to impress, but his mother seems unsympathetic. Meanwhile, everyone’s unfulfilled hopes and desires begin to fester, resulting in disaster . . .
First premiered in 1896, The Seagull continues to be performed on stages around the world. It has been adapted numerous times for theater, musicals, opera, ballet, and film, including a 2018 production starring Annette Bening and Saoirse Ronan.
