THE SEAGULL Extends Through 2/19 at Segal Centre

The Segal Centre for Performing Arts is proud to announce that three performances have been added to its new production of The Seagull, adapted and directed by Peter Hinton.

After delighting preview audiences and officially opening this past Thursday, audiences will have the chance to see this comic and bittersweet re-imagining of Chekhov's masterpiece until February 19th, 2014. Watch the trailer!

Lost love and lost lives inhabit Russian playwright Anton Chekhov's masterpiece brought to life in a new version at the Segal Centre by visionary director and playwright Peter Hinton. The Seagull is a snapshot of the romantic and artistic conflicts of an aspiring playwright, a successful author, an acclaimed theatre star, and a young actress gathered at the country estate of a newly retired government official. At once heartbreaking and comic, funny and bittersweet, The Seagull is a candid and unforgiving look at escapism and reality, misplaced love, youthful idealism and the role of art - a modern take on a classic play for our times. Starring Lucy Peacock, Diane D'Aquila, Krista Colosimo, Patrick Costello, Shannon Currie, Danielle Desormeaux, Marcel Jeannin, Michel Perron, Patrick McManus and Andrew Shaver.

The extension will run until February 19th and includes performances on the following dates:
Monday, February 17th - 8:00 p.m.
Tuesday, February 18th - 8:00 p.m.
Wednesday, February 19th - 8:00 p.m.
