Leo Tolstoy
Anna Karenina
by Marina Carr
Synopsis
Vronsky What were you thinking about with your head stuck to the watering can?
Anna Oh, the same, always the same.
I was thinking about my happiness and about my unhappiness.
Russia is changing.
Rules have been broken.
Chaos is looming.
Families are falling apart.
Tolstoy's Anna Karenina is an examination of a country in the midst of extraordinary change.
Through the impact of one woman's decision, it looks at the troubling cost of love on the human soul.
Marina Carr brings a new perspective to Anna Karenina in her stage adaptation of this epic love story, which opened at the Abbey Theatre, Dublin, in December 2016.
