New York, NY (March 5, 2025) – Today, Olivier Award winner Andrew Scott landed in New York City ahead of the first performance (Monday, March 10) of his multi award-winning performance in the Olivier Award®-winning Vanya at the Lucille Lortel Theatre (121 Christopher Street). This radical new adaptation of Chekhov’s masterwork is co-created with Mr. Scott, adaptor Simon Stephens, designer Rosanna Vize and director Sam Yates. Opening night is set for Tuesday, March 18th.
Mr. Scott commented, “I’m so honored to be in this historic theatre on this historic street, and really excited by how intimate it is. I genuinely believe this is a masterpiece of a play, and I don’t use that word lightly.”
Vanya is produced by Wessex Grove, Gavin Kalin Productions, and Kater Gordon.
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, physicality by Michela Meazza, and costume design by Natalie Pryce. Vanya is Executive Produced by Wagner Johnson Productions.
