The Watermill Theatre present Love on the Tracks
By Richard Attlee
Directed by Michael Woodwood. Inspired by the short
stories of Anton Chekhov.
On a summer’s evening in 1890,
a train pulls out of Moscow station. On board sit three fretful
passengers, each with an extraordinary tale to tell. As their
stories are played out in a series of delightful comic vignettes,
the drama in the carriage tantalisingly unfolds.
Love on the Tracks is a romantic comedy inspired by the early
stories and farces of Anton Chekhov. Full of light-hearted humour
and wonderfully eccentric characters, Love on the Tracks presents a
19th century world of dysfunctional marriage, traumatic romance and
rampant infidelity - in a very modern way! Writer Richard Attlee,
who also performs in Love on the Tracks, is best known for his role
as Kenton Archer in the BBC Radio 4 series The Archers.
