Claire Hart-Palumbo has passionately worked in theatre for over 30 years. This month she will see her dream and hard work come to fruition on stage at the Main Stage Theatre, 9191 Barker Cypress October 13th through October 23rd. Her adaptation of Anton Chekhov’s “The Seagull” is titled “The Seagull in the Delta” - a story of people searching for love and acceptance in a world divided by class issues.
“In graduate school, my pre-thesis work focused on late nineteenth century Russian theater, with an emphasis on Chekhov,” said Hart-Palumbo. She is a talented actress, director, arts administration, teacher, voice and diction coach and most recently a playwright. “I tried unsuccessfully to get several theaters interested in producing Chekhov. But most did not have the passion for it that I had, citing reasons of large casts and poor translations as well as a general ‘unmarketability’ of these brilliant plays.”
