'Do you ever wonder what would happen if we could live our lives all over again but be fully conscious of it the second time?
I bet we'd try to do everything differently, or at least would know to create a different world for ourselves.'
In a room in a house in a provincial town, three sisters wait for their lives to begin. Olga, the eldest. Masha, the middle child. Irina, the youngest.
The clock strikes. A candle is lit. The clock stops. Something catches fire. The clock strikes. They wake up.
Cordelia Lynn's version of Chekhov's Three Sisters, from a literal translation by Helen Rappaport, was first performed at the Almeida Theatre, London, in April 2019, in a production directed by Rebecca Frecknall.
