The performances of the Maly Drama Theater — Theater of Europe will be held in Beijing from June 25 to 27 as part of the NCPA 2026 International Theater Festival. According to Dodin, Chekhov's works are well known and loved in China, so the public will be involved in the story and its scenic embodiment.
The director noted that "Three Sisters" is one of the most complex and profound plays of the Russian classic. The theater came to work on this work after many years of experience in turning to Chekhov's work and carefully comprehending his dramaturgy.
The performances in Beijing will be the first tour of the St. Petersburg MDT in the Chinese capital. Previously, the theater's productions have already been presented to audiences in other Chinese cities, including Hong Kong and Tianjin.
