And there was almost the Three Sisters at NYTW with Oscar Isaac / Greta Gerwig / Sam Gold / Clare Barron … but the pandemic stopped that one and after Barbie, Greta is gonna be locked up directing for the next decade.
There was an adaptation at The Public just a few months ago. I’m also specifically thinking of the New Group adaptation with Parker Posey a couple years ago. And wasn’t there just a London one with Cate Blanchett rumored to transfer?
I think both of those were modern riffs on The Seagull, not the actual play. I’d love to see Cate Blanchett do it but now I’m more interested in that Persona inspired show she’s doing in London in the fall. I suspect any chance of her Seagull coming to New York has dried up.
I’ve seen three Vanyas in New York in just the last three years!
