The digital lottery system and cancellation line for “Vanya,” the new adaptation of Anton Chekhov’s classic “Uncle Vanya,” featuring Olivier Award-winning actor Andrew Scott, have been announced ahead of the production’s inaugural preview scheduled for Monday, March 10th, at The Lucille Lortel Theatre, with the official opening night set for Tuesday, March 18th.
In collaboration with TodayTix, “Vanya” will provide $40 Lottery tickets available exclusively through the TodayTix app. Lottery entries will be accepted starting at 12 AM each Sunday, allowing participants the chance to secure up to two tickets for performances during the upcoming week. The entry period will close at 1 PM the day before the scheduled performance, with winners being selected shortly thereafter.
Additionally, a Digital Cancellation Line will be available exclusively via the TodayTix app, releasing same-day tickets on a first-come, first-served basis. This line will operate from 4 PM until 6 PM.
Chekhov’s enduring work has resonated with audiences and inspired playwrights for over 125 years, known for its rich emotional complexity and understated humor as it navigates themes of unfulfilled aspirations, existential desires, and intricate human interactions. Throughout theatrical history, celebrated performers such as Laurence Olivier, Ian McKellen, and Peter O’Toole have portrayed its central character, yet none have embodied all roles… until now.
Andrew Scott has played a pivotal role in the creation of this Olivier Award-winning production, collaborating with adaptor Simon Stephens, designer Rosanna Vize, and director Sam Yates. The design team for “Vanya” further includes contributions from lighting designer James Farncombe, sound designer Dan Balfour, video designer Jack Phelan, physical movement designer Michela Meazza, and costume designer Natalie Pryce. The production is also supported by Wagner Johnson Productions as its Executive Producer.
