The Seagull

Considered by some critics among one of the 100 most important plays of all times, The Seagull is the first of the four major plays of Anton Chekhov, revolving around the romantic and aristic relations of the four main characters. It was first staged in 1896 in St Petersbourg, resulting in a spectacular fiasco, but soon recovered to go on to become one of the most performed shows on all times.
