The Olivier Award-winning production, in which Mr. Scott co-created with adaptor Simon Stephens, designer Rosanna Vize and director Sam Yates, is set to open on Tuesday, March 18 at the Lucille Lortel Theatre (121 Christopher Street). Rehearsals began in London this week. Tickets are available exclusively on TodayTix by visiting TodayTix.com or downloading the TodayTix app. For more information, please visit vanyaonstage.com .

The Lucille Lortel Box Office (121 Christopher Street) will also be open three hours prior to the currently running show's curtain time. Advance sales are not available 30 minutes prior to curtain. Vanya is being presented by special arrangement with the Lucille Lortel Theatre. Anton Chekhov's timeless masterpiece has captivated audiences and influenced dramatists for more than 125 years, thanks to the emotional depth and subtle humor it brings to the exploration of unfulfilled dreams, existential yearning, and the complexities of human relationships. A trove of history's greatest stage stars, including Laurence Olivier, Ian McKellen, and Peter O'Toole, have tackled its titular character. None of them played every role...until now. In addition to Ms. Vize, the design team for Vanya includes lighting design by James Farncombe, sound design by Dan Balfour, video design by Jack Phelan, movement direction by Michela Meazza, music by Kelly Moran, and costume design by Natalie Pryce. Vanya will be Executive Produced by Wagner Johnson Productions. www.vanyaonstage.com www.instagram.com/vanyaonstage www.facebook.com/vanyaonstage |
