comedy set in 1991 in St.
Petersburg, Russia, the Kuzlov

of commercialism as the Soviet
government topples and
perestroika is the order of the day.
But a fresh production of Chekov's
The Three Sisters will surely turn
things around. Soon they discover
even this masterpiece isn't safe in a
climate where the changing
