Uncle Vanya (to those who come after us)
Description
The central theme of "Tio Vânia" (Uncle Vanya), which is a play written in 1897 by Anton Tchékhov, is the inevitable loss of illusions and the consequent need that man has to reinvent themselves and face the future. Set in a decadent Russian country estate in the late 19th century, the text deeply and delicately covers love, desire, the passage of time, the physical decay, the aridity of existence, disappointments, the annihilation of dreams, and it surprisingly conveys an underlying message of faith.
