Uncle Vanya is back! Apollinaire Theatre in Chelsea MA ( 189 Winnisimmet Street, www.apollinairetheatre.com) invites you to experience their Elliot Norton Award winning production, staged in 4 locations throughout the theater, with the audience moving with the action.

At Apollinaire Gallery, located at the lobby of the theatre you can enjoy an Uncle Vanya Art exhibit featuring 4 Russian-American painters: George Lapchinsky ( oil, Moscow) Alexander Vetrov ( colored etchings, Moscow) Vladimir Volosov (oil, St. Petersburg- Boston) and Tatiana Yanovskaya- Sink ( oil.

Uncle Vanya takes place in the late 1890's, and the Theatre was seeking works of art in styles that might be present in a home of that era. Paintings and etchings by Russian artists are hung both in the Theatre gallery and in the performance spaces as part of the home, and viewed as the audience moves with an action from room to room.
