VANYA is a theatre performance in Copenhagen, staged at Aveny-T, and it is built around one actor. Danish actor Nikolaj Lie Kaas performs alone on stage, playing eight different characters in an adaptation inspired by Chekhov's Uncle Vanya. It is a solo show in the fullest sense, so the evening rests on a single performer moving between roles.
What to expect
The production runs on the Main Stage at Aveny-T, one of the city's theatre venues. Performances take place from 7 October to 6 November 2027. For many audiences the appeal will be the return itself: this is Nikolaj Lie Kaas's first time back on the stage after 15 years, which gives the run a particular interest for anyone who follows Danish theatre and film.
