Emila Clarke will return to the West End in the Seagull! Adapted by Anya Reiss and directed by Jamie Lloyd the show was originally part of a year-long residency at the Playhouse Theatre, before being shuttered by the initial COVID-19 lockdown. Updated to the modern-day, the themes of Checkov's masterpiece; hidden desire, long-held secrets, and dreams quashed are just as relevant today as they ever have been.
Best known for her iconic turn as troubled Queen Daenerys Targaryen in HBO's worldwide mega-hit Game of Thrones, Clark plays Nina, a young woman with dreams of becoming an actress, whose world is turned upside down following a visit to a neighbouring country house.
What is the story of The Seagull?
A group of well-heeled guests gather at the country house of a retired civil servant, to see a new avant-garde play that his young nephew has written. A bit of a hack job with an emphasis on symbolism, the play is a disaster and is abandoned after the first act. With emotions running high after the aborted performance, we discover a tangle of love triangles amongst the characters, self-doubt and a rampaging pursuit of happiness that threatens to overturn everybody's beliefs and sensibilities.
