Three Sisters (Better Days Will Come)

Three sisters return to the island of their origin to tackle inheritance issues. Their father has passed away; they no longer have any relatives, and all three now live exclusively in Athens. Ever since they were little girls, they have dreamed of the big city, longing to escape so they can study, fall in love, and enjoy better professional prospects. Returning to their family home brings them face to face with the lives they have chosen, their childhood fantasies, and the people from their early years who have shaped them.

Drawing inspiration from Chekhov’s Three Sisters, this new piece attempts to illuminate the concerns of a young generation living in large urban centers, working hard, searching for love, and ultimately striving to find a “Moscow” in which to exist.
