To enjoy this version of Uncle Vanya, two conditions are essential:
Because , at first sight, it is a provocative version- one actor plays all the characters . The manner to do that is not real surprising - the accent on humor sides of each character was present in other adaptations. And Mr. Scott knows to use each nuance in fair - precise manner, fair reminding the play itself and its versions.
But, obvious, it is only an experiment, perfect for Andrew Scott who use, in brilliant way, entire liberty offered by lines , meanings of words and context.
Iloved the final of play, maybe little strident in this case but beautiful crafted.
So, no doubts, Andrew Scott deserves his Vanya and this play is the precious pledge for it.
- to be familiar with Anton Chekhov play;
- to be familiar with Andrew Scott manner to build his characters - his Hamlet can be useful prepair -.

Took a while for me to care. In the beginning they were all boring, unpleasant, pathetic or vile. The only good thing about it was Andrew Scott's performance and the occasional humour. Which is what makes it a four star to be honest.
I don't remember much of Uncle Vanya, if anything, but I remember I felt so sorry for him. This play brings everything closer to modern day and the characters feel diminished and much less worthy.
Anyway, I liked the last half hour, when I could actually connect to and feel for some of these people. But truly the high marks are for the performance. I don't know if this gimmick was really needed and I might have empathized more if I had individual actors for the other roles.

I am torn about this version. Yes, Andrew Scott once again proves himself to be an excellent actor. However, the manner in which he portrays the characters-through endless mannerisms and antics-seems out of place to me. It cheapens the story and the heartbreak of the characters' lives, without adding any depth or additional layers to the adaptation. Some of the jokes and the aforementioned physical comedy make the characters so cartoonish by the end that the final scene-which, in the book or in a classical adaptation, should tear your soul apart-fails to have the emotional impact it deserves.
I think it's a nice adaptation to watch (just not for the first time) if only to witness Andrew Scott's acting prowess. Besides, it's interesting to see the story through this director's eyes. Personally, I don't regret watching it, but I have no desire to see it again.

I've never seen anything like this before: Andrew Scott plays every role in an adaptation of Chekhov's Uncle Vanya and delivers an astonishing performance. One quickly becomes accustomed to the conceit of one actor utilising a multiplicity of gestures, inflections, body language and mannerisms to depict different characters; Scott's exceptional skills in carrying this off have to be seen to be fully appreciated.
The adaptation of Chekhov's material is expertly devised and although there are many, many laughs in this production, what really strikes home is the deep emotional intensity of the performance. Scott is in tears at several points and it is both heartbreaking and exhilarating to witness.
Anyone who has the slightest interest in the theatre should make it a point to catch this film. Wonderfully filmed, with expressive and thoughtful camera work, it is an undiluted triumph for all concerned.

I believe it would be correct to say that this is far away from a regular play and if you want a classical Chekhov play and the story then this might not be it. As I've seen it now I realise how much it is about Andrew Scott and what an actor can do. This is the real reason everyone should go watch it, in case if you want to be a part of the experiment and see how Andrew gives a brilliant performance.
Especially since he is playing like 3 female characters and 3-4 male characters? I must admit that as I'm not a native English speaker and I'm not very familiar with the original material then I really needed to pay attention and even though Andrew made it quite simple to understand the character change sometimes I could have drifted away as at one point one of the character states as well.

- CuriosidadesVanya, as a name, is a Russian form of the Slavic name Ivan, derived from the Hebrew names John, Johnny, or Jane, which means "'gracious gift of God", "God is gracious". In Russia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, it is primarily used for boys, while in Serbia and Croatia, it is considered a unisex name. Additionally, Vanya is commonly given to baby girls in Bulgaria and Scandinavian countries. Being a variant of John, Jane, or Ivan, the name Vanya can be associated with John, a cherished disciple of Jesus and known for his unwavering faith and loyalty, as mentioned in the New Testament.
