Three Sisters with the silhouettes of three woman's heads

October 23–26, 2025

Sanctuary Theatre

Summary

Three remarkable women refuse to give up on their dreams in this timeless exploration of family, ambition, and the courage to keep believing in better days. In this Chekhov classic, sisters Olga, Masha, and Irina chase their dreams of a life in the glamor of Moscow while building lives in a provincial town. Through love affairs, family dynamics, and the small dramas of everyday life, the play reveals how hope and connection can flourish even in the most unexpected places.
