The Seagull London tickets

Cate Blanchett and Tom Burke star in Thomas Ostermeier's new production of Chekhov’s The Seagull. Playing a strictly limited six week run, the initial ticket release sold out in record time. A second wave has just become available. Now’s your chance to get your hands on the West End’s hottest ticket.

About The Seagull

Cate Blanchett stars as Arkadina, a celebrated actress whose larger-than-life presence dominates both the stage and her personal relationships. Arriving at her family's country estate for the weekend, she finds herself caught in a storm of conflicting desires. Her playwright son, Konstantin (Kodi Smit-McPhee), struggles to step out of her shadow as he pursues his own artistic ambitions and her lover Trigorin (Tom Burke) becomes the object of affection for the aspiring young actress Nina (Emma Corrin).

As their lives entwine and they each grapple with their desires, ambitions, and disappointments, Chekhov's timeless story unfolds in a gripping tale of vanity, power and sacrifices made in the name of art.
