Stephen Romei The Australian It's much more than a play being filmed. He frames the film so that we see it differently than if we were sitting in the theatre. Rated: 4.5/5 Mar 9, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Nancy The adaptation lost nothing of what makes Chekov so important, and the acting is true, and raw, and delicate. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/20/24 Full Review Artdoggie The performance was extraordinary. This adaptation of Uncle Vanya is a relevation. If you love live theatre this movie is a gift! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/19/24 Full Review Kenn E With all of the characters Andrew Scott plays, you really shouldn't be able to keep such effortless track of them, but you do. Scott gives an amazing performance of such distinct, universally human characters — telling their story with humour, affection, and dignity. Unforgettable. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/11/24 Full Review Candy A little confusing at the start but hugely compelling once you get the hang of the delivery. Very emotional and wonderfully acted. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/26/24 Full Review carol p exceptionally acted well paced play with all the feels. Not to be missed. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/19/24 Full Review James O Andrew Scott is incredible. He brings so much emotion and depth to what could have been a very poorly acted one-man performance. The stage is very well crafted. Nothing on there is just for show. Incredible! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/22/24 Full Review Read all reviews
