Anton Chekhov's The Seagull is considered one of his most haunting and
atmospheric character studies. A would-be playwright is at war with his
egoistic mother while the town has become intoxicated by a sensational
author. And as the alluring newcomer steals away Kosta's only love,
their new romance could have devastating consequences.
