CityLife

A beautifully brooding production of this intense play. The cast splendidly capture the claustrophobic lives of the three sisters as they come to realise that their dreams are just that and will never be fulfilled.<br /> <br /> Beth Cooke, Emma Cunliffe and Lucy Black are perfect as Irina, Masha and Olga, whilst Polly Findlay is splendidly nasty as Natasha. Praise too for Christopher Colquhon as Baron Tusenbach who rings character out of what could too easily be a caricature<br /> <br /> The pace of this play never falters and you emerge engaged with the lives you have seen fall before you. An intellegent and gripping evening<br />
