This will be the premiere performance for The Ravens Theatre Company, launching in June 2026 with The Seagull in Anya Reiss's brilliant contemporary adaptation.
A bold reimagining of Chekhov's classic, the production brings timeless themes into the modern world - performed by local actors and creatives. It's the first step in building a bright, contemporary future for theatre in Castlemaine.
The Seagull is a dark and moving play punctuated by moments of levity. A young woman is desperate for fame and a way out. A young man is pining after the woman of his dreams. A successful writer longs for a sense of achievement. An actress wants to fight the changing of the times. In an isolated home in the countryside, dreams lie in tatters, hopes are dashed, and hearts broken. With nowhere left to turn, where do you go?
The Seagull contains discussion and depictions of self-harm and suicide. Audience discretion is advised.
Recommended for ages 14+.
