Description Following on from his adaptation of Chekhov's Uncle Vanya, Andrew Upton's new adaptation of Maxim Gorky's Children of the Sun takes a fresh, colloquial look at the human condition.
In a rambling mansion in provincial Russia at the beginning of the 20th century, a sister, a brother, their partners and admirers pursue their intimate intrigues oblivious to bigger new realities brewing at their door. A family born to privilege but bound for dysfunction.
