Three Sisters, by Anton Chekhov
Northwest Classical Theatre Collaborative
This one was a bit of a stretch for a festival that's intended for new works. But it is, at least, a new adaption, if only because the director couldn't find an existing translation that wasn't hopelessly old-fashioned, and so commissioned (wrote?) his own.
The language may have been new(ish), but the plot was unchanged. No happy endings here. And by the end I was emotionally drained.
