A series of six internationally renowned stage plays which, through simultaneous transmission by Radio 4 and the BBC World Service, can be shared by the largest English-speaking audience in the world
with Anna Massey as Isobel Desmond, Alan Rickman as Aston, Dominic Guard as Constantine and Fiona Victory as Lily
Chekhov's classic play is transposed to the west of Ireland in 1896. Social unrest and a crumbling society form the background to personal turmoil as Isobel Desmond, great actress of the London stage, returns to her Irish estate and to a family trapped in a complex and vicious circle of love and cruel rejection.
