Hilberry Theatre
4743 Cass Avenue
Detroit
8:00pm - 11:00pm
The Hilberry Theatre is presenting Anton Chekhov’s first great play, The Seagull (Russian: Чайка, Chayka) in rotating repertory. This play dramatizes the romantic and artistic conflicts between four characters, each of whom is denied the one thing they most crave. This is an exciting time for the Hilberry, as the performance will be a culmination of the Moscow Art Theatre School training that several members of the cast received over the summer of 2009. The Seagull is directed by Dr. James Thomas, Professor of Theatre and head of the Wayne State University Theatre’s PhD and Month in Moscow (MIM) programs.
