The Bear/ The Proposal

Happy wife, happy life?

With mortgages to pay and sickly fathers to care for, Chekhov’s heroines are in a bind. They've got to coolly weigh up the practical benefits of marriage against their true feelings.

Our usual assumptions about love and marriage unravel in this bold new production of two of Chekhov's wryest comedies in versions by Michael Frayn.

Performed by a gender-fierce company of queer identifying artists and directed by Genesis Award winner Lucy J Skilbeck.
