IU Cinema presents National Theater Live: VANYA

Andrew Scott stuns in this one-man retelling of Chekhov’s classic black comedy Uncle Vanya.
About Vanya
Andrew Scott (Fleabag, All of Us Strangers) brings multiple characters to life in Simon Stephens’ (The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time) radical new version of Chekhov’s Uncle Vanya. Hopes, dreams, and regrets are thrust into sharp focus in this one-man adaptation which explores the complexities of human emotions. Ivan (Uncle Vanya) has spent his life managing the estate and business affairs of his family with little regard for his efforts. Scott plays the titular character, retired professor Alexander and his daughter Sonia, Alexander’s second wife Helena, Vanya’s widowed mother Maureen, his romantic rival the country doctor Michael, and more. Filmed live during the play’s sold-out run in London’s West End. [100 min; drama; English with open captions]
