The Cherry Orchard

A sci-fi headtrip: here’s The Cherry Orchard as you’ve never seen it before, reimagining of Chekhov’s bittersweet play for 2022 and beyond. An old starship travels through space, almost at the speed of light, searching for a home billions of miles from earth. Like their ancestors before them, the crew were born on this ship, this voyage is all they’ve ever known. And then… A planet is spotted. In a habitable zone! Imagine what we could do with the place. It’s a miracle. But not everyone wants to see it. Captain Ramesh is adamant that they can’t leave… but the downdeckers are getting restless… Something has to change. Will they leap into a new future, or stay stuck on this journey forever? Strap in and if you hear “brace” then brace.
