2037 – Winter Festival.

Eight at night in a room lit by candles and the woodburner. Much has changed in the household. Andrew and Chloe have got married and have a little boy, Micha. Mia and Alex are deep in an affair. Nick is leaving the Agency whilst Erin is exhausted by work. The Festival Party never arrives.

Three Sisters - A story from the climate future

A timely and thought provoking drama based on Chekhov’s Three Sisters, available now on all major platforms.  

Created by renowned art and social justice group Platform, Three Sisters - a story from the climate future is an exploration of how people carry on in a dislocated world, suffering from the impact of climate change and repeated pandemics. 


Set in rural Scotland in the late 2030s, co-creators James Marriott and Lena Šimić have used the structure and sensibility of Anton Chekhov’s Three Sisters - a dissection of isolation, longing, and family ties - to explore a thriving community set up against the backdrop of social and ecological collapse. But after 15 years of weathering storms, floods, and lockdowns, can this community survive itself?
