Overview
"A play ripe for revival, speaking clearly to the present moment." —London Theatre
It's a hot, beautiful summer in 1905, and Russia's elite retreats to the countryside to swim, sip champagne and start affairs.
When you're having this much fun, why care about anything else? But Vavara can't shake the feeling that they're living on stolen time. How long can they go on ignoring the storm that's gathering on the horizon?
A razor-sharp portrait of class, privilege, and denial, Summerfolk was written by Maxim Gorky in 1904.
