Life will slallow you up

This show consists of the adaptation of the four main pieces of Chekhov: The Seagull, The Three Sisters, Uncle Vania and Ginjal. The intention is to present them all in one night, from the beginning of the night until the beginning of the day, making the dawn the great protagonist, in which in the pieces of Chekov much change happens. The dawn is the future. What will it be!
It is about this change that we want to work on. The change from the old to the new; the bankruptcy of old customs; the liberation of the old truths.
In his work the author described the life of certain layers of the petty bourgeoisie of his time, disoriented and depressed people, beset by the collapse of a decadent society; focusing on the vices and ambiguities of an intellectuality divided between the desire to transform reality and its inability to act in the face of this society.
