In this bold and hilariously irreverent reimagining of Anton Chekhov’s Uncle Vanya, a tangled web of old friends, ex-lovers, estranged in-laws, and lifelong rivals come together under one roof. As they confront life’s deepest questions—and each other—old wounds are ripped open, and chaos is just a heartbeat away. What could possibly go wrong?
Directed by NCTC Associate Artistic Director Noah Lucé, Life Sucks features Artistic Director J. Matthew Gordon, Managing Director Justine Stock, and returning New Canon players Sarah Dunnavant, Craig Storm, Celeste Lagrange, Mike McColl, and Patty Gallagher.
