Interview: 'Everyone Is Aware of Bringing Chekov Into a Shakespeare Building": Actor Shannon Tarbet On THREE SISTERS at The Globe
by Gary Naylor - Feb 17, 2025

With a starry The Seagull opening soon at The Barbican, the peerless playwright is in vogue right now, his unstable worlds of uneasy transition chiming with the nervous times. On the banks of the Thames, the third of the fab four tragedies, Three Sisters, (or should that be comedies?) is receiving rave reviews. BroadwayWorld's Gary Naylor sat down with Shannon Tarbet, who plays Masha, to talk about the great Russian's debut in the home of the great Englishman.
