About This Event

Dive into the heart of Chekhov's stagecraft with an evening of performances, revealing his plays through a cultural & theatrical lens.

This seminar offers a deep dive into Chekhov’s unique theatrical language. Through practical exploration, text analysis, and live scene work, viewers will experience the delicate balance of humour and heartbreak that defines Chekhov’s writing.

From the aching stillness of The Seagull to the bittersweet decay of Uncle Vanya, Three Sisters, and The Cherry Orchard, we’ll explore how Anton Chekhov quietly revolutionised modern drama. Rejecting melodrama in favour of subtext, contradiction, and emotional restraint, Chekhov created plays where the deepest conflicts live beneath the surface.

In this engaging and accessible session, you will witness firsthand the craft and discipline required to transform Chekhov’s nuanced text into a vibrant, living experience. “How to: Chekhov” provides a rich foundation for deeper exploration and serves as a perfect precursor to our subsequent 4-day intensive workshop. https://www.16thstreet.com.au/how-to-chekhov

Whether you are a performer, director, writer, or devoted theatre enthusiast, this seminar will inspire and empower you to engage with Chekhov’s work in a profoundly practical and human way.
