Liv Ferracchiati, an associate artist at the Teatro Stabile di Torino, directs his own reinterpretation of one of Chekhov’s most famous plays, exploring its pervasive sense of stasis and longing for change. He entrusts the roles in this story to Francesco Aricò, Valentina Bartolo, Giovanni Battaglia, Giordana Faggiano, Rosario Lisma, Antonio Mingarelli, Marco Quaglia, Livia Rossi, and Irene Villa. The original work, written in 1900, told the story of Olga, Masha, and Irina, trapped in an oppressive provincial town and unable to realize their dream of returning to Moscow. Ferracchiati emphasizes the play’s modernity, highlighting our emotional precariousness and revealing the characters’ inner fractures and unresolved aspirations. The result is an intense, universal portrait of the unfinished nature of human existence.
