For the first time ever in the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse, experience the work of Anton Chekhov with Three Sisters, a masterful study of family legacy, misdirected love and the human condition. 

‘Everything’s fine. It is.’

What to expect

Three Sisters. Their brother, and his fiancé. The teacher, the doctor, the old woman, and the soldiers stationed nearby. A small town, in the middle of nowhere.

Their world is going up in flames, one minute at a time. But can they create the change they’re longing for?

One of the most influential literary artists of his time, this season Anton Chekhov shares the stage with Shakespeare as we explore the transformative impact they both continue to have on how we think and feel about the world.

Caroline Steinbeis (The Contingency Plan, Rutherford and Son, Sheffield Crucible) returns to the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse to direct this twentieth century classic.

Watching at Shakespeare's Globe Theatre

Allow yourself to be transported back to the medieval 1500's, a time of political upheaval, strongly religious atmospheres, social change, and incredible theatre.

Immerse yourself in the world of Shakespeare, and enjoy his plays just the same as those in medieval times did.

The theatre is inspired and informed by the unique historic playing conditions of two beautiful iconic theatres, this diverse programme of work harnesses the power of performance, cultivates intellectual curiosity and excites learning to make Shakespeare accessible for all.
