Southern Tier Actors Read perform Chekov's "Uncle Vanya"

Director Bernie Sheredy speaks with WSKG's Bill Snyder about directing Anton Chekov's Uncle Vanya. Sheredy has found a translation of this classic play that he feels captures the spirit of the original."Vanya is one of the most -- I think -- fully realized of his comedic masterpieces. It's certainly my favorite. And to have a chance to work on it, even in just a reading, though as a reading it's incredibly challenging, because Vanya's a stretch for any actor."Incidental music will be provided by a balalaika player who has recently immigrated from Russia.  Southern Tier Actors Read, or S.T.A.R., are presenting it at the Cider Mill Playhouse in Endicott.https://stream.publicbroadcasting.net/production/mp3/wskg/local-wskg-1039688.mp3Photograph Courtesy of HerLanieShip via Flickr
