After the excellent reception for their previous production of Stockmann, Les Antonietes offer us their perspective on Uncle Vanya. In the midst of hatred, love, jealousy and frustration, six people engage in a discussion to understand what their purpose in this life is, apart from drinking vodka and heating the samovar.

"I will be reproved for writing only about mediocre events, for not having any positive heroes. We are leading a provincial life, the streets of our city are not even paved, our villages are poor and our people are worn out. When we're young, we all chirp fervently like sparrows on a dung heap; but we're old by the time we're forty and we start thinking about death. What kind of heroes we? I only wanted to tell people honestly: look, look how badly you live and how boring your lives are. The important thing is that people should understand this; if they do understand this, they will certainly invent a different and far better life. Man will become better only once we have shown him as he really is." (Anton P. Chekhov)
