Synopsis
Russia.
A beautiful country estate.
The mid-nineteenth century.
A handsome new tutor brings reckless, romantic desire to an eccentric household.
Over three days one summer the young and the old will learn lessons in love: first love and forbidden love, maternal love and platonic love, ridiculous love and last love.
The love left unsaid and the love which must out.
Ivan Turgenev's passionate, moving comedy, A Month in the Country , has been a source of inspiration for films, a ballet and the plays of Chekhov.
Patrick Marber's Three Days in the Country premiered at the National Theatre, London, in July 2015 in association with Sonia Friedman Productions.
