Nominated by The Sydney Sun Herald as one of the 10 best Australian productions of the decade.

[UNCLE] VANYA

By HOWARD BARKER

A gun is fired. The bullet strikes its mark. The course of events changes irrevocably.

Howard Barker’s exhilarating reworking of Chekhov’s original play, erodes the naturalistic form of this melancholy masterpiece, liberating the characters and allowing them to define a new life based on desire and action.

This critically acclaimed Brink production not only remakes a classic text anew, but also ushers us into a theatrical landscape that must be seen to be believed.
