SURTITLES – The performance you are about to see makes numerous references to Chekhov’s The Seagull. If you haven’t seen the play, leave this theatre immediately. No, I’m kidding. Drawing on excerpts from Chekhov’s The Seagull, Treplev and Trigorin are catapulted into the contemporary world. We wish them the best of luck. During the Covid-19 pandemic, they withdrew to a country house. Far from everything, to think. Treplev (Konstantin Gavrilovich) is about to become a father. He is anxious. Trigorin (Boris Alexeyevich) is no less anxious and, more generally, questions the meaning of existence. Between past and present (in both cases, a world at a turning point and coming to an end), François Sauveur and Boris Prager wonder about… they’re not really sure anymore what exactly. Surtitled in English. With the support of FWB, DC&J Création, SACD and the Saint-Gilles Department of Culture.
