Following a 5-star debut in 2025, Last Waltz Productions returns to the Old Fitz with a new and innovative staging of Anton Chekhov’s classic play. 

After the death of their parents, something essential is lost in the lives of the Prozorov sisters - direction, purpose, and hope. In a small provincial Russian town, their days pass quietly, filled with memory, longing, and unspoken desire; Irina longs to work and lead a life of independence and drive. The fiery Masha is married to the sweet but unpassionate Kulygin, and privately burns for excitement. And Olga, the eldest, intelligent and loyal, has found herself living a life of subservience; she gives, and gives, and gives. All three look to Moscow as a symbol of the happiness they believe awaits them somewhere along the horizon - their lost paradise. 

In Three Sisters, life unfolds between what is and what might have been. In this fragile space, faith, hope, and love rise like quiet prayers. The balance between laughter and tears is delicate; people talk with the deepest regrets while pouring tea, and dream of better futures while tripping over their own feet. 

Written with humor, nostalgia, and deep compassion, Chekhov’s masterpiece tells a story of the passage of time, and the persistence of hope. These characters are not distant figures from another time - they are us today, with all our joy, fear, desperation, desire, loneliness, and silence. See them onstage in this boldly honest adaptation performed by one of Sydney’s most exciting emerging collectives.
