Opening Programme of Asia+ Festival 2025: "The Cherry Orchard" (A Korean-language theatre work directed by Simon Stone and produced by LG Arts Center (Korea))
Acclaimed director Simon Stone and his stellar Korean cast bring striking originality to Chekhov's classic, relocating The Cherry Orchard of old Russia to modern-day Korea. Doyoung Song, a chaebol heiress, returns from abroad to a free and defiant Seoul. Above all, her family business is in peril, threatening the future of her mansion. As the Songs grapple with their status and heritage in a rapidly changing world, quiet tensions unfold within their glass-walled home, and the family collapses into a poignant, beautiful mess.
