Andrew Scott (Fleabag) brings multiple characters to life in Simon Stephens’ (The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time) radical new version of Chekhov’s Uncle Vanya. Hopes, dreams, and regrets are thrust into sharp focus in this one-man adaptation which explores the complexities of human emotions.
Ivan (Uncle Vanya) has spent his life managing the estate and business affairs of his family with little regard for his efforts.
Andrew Scott plays the titular character alongside his second wife Helena, retired professor Alexander and his daughter Sonia, Vanya’s widowed mother Maureen, his romantic rival the country doctor Michael and the nanny Maria, alongside Elizabeth and Liam. Filmed live from its sold-out West End run.
"“…drop everything and take yourself to Vanya…Andrew Scott’s solo performance is astounding! The result is jaw-dropping. He captures the full sweep of human life in this solo performance, seamlessly moving from one character to another to another to another. "
