Description

2013 Tony Award-Winning Comedy! A dysfunctional family’s reunion you won’t soon forget. This raucous comedy smashes together Chekhov’s classic themes of loss and longing with really impressive abs, Disney’s Snow White, and a prophetic housekeeper. Sonia and Vanya have frittered their lives away in the family farmhouse. Enter their sister, self-absorbed movie star Masha, with her 20-something boy toy Spike, and the stage is set for a weekend of hilarity.

“Deliriously funny.”—The New York Times

“Hugely entertaining.”—USA Today

Quick Facts

You don’t need to be familiar with Anton Chekhov to enjoy this play, which according to the playwright takes “Chekhov scenes and characters and puts them into a blender.”

The original Broadway cast included David Hyde Pierce, Kristine Nielsen, Sigourney Weaver and Billy Magnussen.

In addition to the Tony, Vanya earned the New York Drama Critics’ Circle, Drama League, and Drama Desk awards, all for best play of the season.

The character of Vanya has one of the best rants about modern life you will ever witness.
