Three Sisters is staged in a sitting room, with a group of friends who have come together to do a reading of the classic play. But as the piece progresses, it begins to sway into reality, melting the boundaries between theatrical process and production, between actor/friend and character/family. This young group’s relationship to despair and the role of work comes to the fore as it takes earnestly Chekhov’s assertion — ‘This life of ours is not over yet’.

Developed as a theatrical production with Betyl Theatre and as a film co-directed by Mia Hull and Sylvie Field, Three Sisters experiments with combining theatrical and cinematic spectatorship. An hour long cut, Three Sisters on Greenway Close, was created for the Zaha Hadid Foundation in July 2026 as part of Post Press. Featuring an immersive scenography built by Medium architects and three performers, this event focused on the room in which the film was made and what it means for a group of artists to occupy a domestic space for creative production. The feature is currently in post-production.
