The Seagull
Ever see this 1896 Chekhov classic staged at outdoors at twilight? Beneath a rising full moon? In a tranquil, grassy cemetery? That’s what the Art Theater of Davis does in this unusual show. The script involves well-heeled Russians whiling away a summer holiday at a rural estate. This traditional production is thoughtfully staged on a shoestring budget, and embodies Chekhov’s unique ability to combine comic social banter and inward desperation in the same play. Sa, Su, M, T 7pm. Through 5/9. Free, donations accepted. Davis Cemetery, 820 Pole Line Road in Davis. http://arttheater.org. J.H.
