Summary/Abstract: Katarzyna Osińska begins her review of The Three Sisters directed by Timofyey Kulabin (Krasny Fakiel State Academic Theater in Novosibirsk, premiere: 11.12.2015) by describing the first scene, guiding the reader into the mood of a play filled with pop-culture references. She calls attention to the phonosphere of the production, in which the protagonists are deaf-mutes using sign language, and quotes the director's statements on the motivation for this choice. The reviewer describes the set design, which alludes to the drama's time frame, and analyzes the protagonists' relationships. On the whole she finds the production to be moving, and praises its ability to draw out the meaning of Chekov's work.
