In VANYA AND SONIA AND MASHA AND SPIKE, master of comedy Christopher Durang takes characters and themes from Chekhov, pours them into a blender and mixes them up. The utterly hilarious and occasionally touching result is set in present day Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Vanya and his stepsister Sonia have lived their entire lives in their family's farmhouse. While they stayed home to care for their ailing parents, their sister Masha has been gallivanting around the world as a successful actress, leaving Vanya and Sonia feeling trapped and regretful. Their soothsayer/cleaning woman Cassandra keeps warning them about terrible things, which include a sudden visit from Masha and her twenty-something boy toy Spike.
