A comedy hit by Christopher Durang revolving around the relationships of three middle-aged single siblings, two of whom live together, and takes place during a visit by the third, Masha, who supports them. They discuss their lives and loves, argue, and Masha threatens to sell the house. Taking inspiration from works of Anton Chekhov and with the play’s setting in a cherry orchard, as well as the theme of the possible loss of an ancestral home, this play skilfully merges realism and farce – with Tony Award-winning success. In this production, the audience is invited to step into the centre of the three siblings and fully immerse themselves in Christopher Durang’s most recent hit from the centre of the stage.

Producer: Down the Rabbit Hole Theatre in collaboration with Københavns Film & Teaterskole (KFTS)

★★★★★

"Suffice it to say, this has been another masterclass by director Jeremy Thomas-Poulsen. An ingenious set enabled the siblings’ cherry copse/orchard and wading pool to come alive through the door to the foyer, placing the audience on a virtual verandah looking into the home.”

Copenhagen Post

★★★★

"Down The Rabbit Hole Theaters leder og instruktør, Jeremy Thomas-Poulsen, dygtigt har iscenesat med et meget velcastet hold til en virkelig underholdende og seværdig forestilling."
