Tickets Available For Life Sucks

The Palmer Opera House has assembled an all star cast of local actors to bring “Life Sucks” by Aaron Posner to life. In this fast paced and funny contemporary adaptation of the great Russian Playwright Anton Chekhov’s 1898 play “Uncle Vanya” directed by recent SUNY Fredonia graduate and Belfast native Aidan Heaney, we watch as a complicated modern family struggle with desires and disappointments over the course of one weekend on the family estate.

Led by the curmudgeonly Vanya, our group of friends, enemies, and exes lovingly and honestly gather together to poke at the center of what makes our lives what they are, and ask us, the audience the question: does life really suck?

Please be advised that this production is not intended for younger audiences and contains mature themes and profanity. Performances will be February 20-21 at 7:30 PM and February 22 at 2:00 at the Palmer Opera House in Cuba NY. Tickets may be purchased at the QR code in the poster link.

Welcome to the Palmer Opera House.

The Palmer is a vintage theater/Opera House located in Cuba, New York. This historic theater is steeped with rich character and details of another era. The Palmer was built in 1867, and after a long and rich history fell into disrepair and restoration began in 2006. Much of the theater has had to be restored over the years but it still retains much of its original character.
