Synopsis: | Chekhov's eloquent study of languid Russian landowners has been transposed by Julian Mitchell to Victorian north Wales in this stunning adaptation, which dispenses with many of the alienating Russian principles-confusing patronymics-and theatrical cliches -birch forests and samovars -that characterise most modern British productions. Anthony Hopkins played Ieuan Davies in the acclaimed original production for Theatr Clwyd in 1994. | |||||

| In Chekhov's tragi-comedy - arguably his most popular play - the Gayev family is torn by powerful forces deeply rooted in history and the society in which they live. Their estate is hopelessly in debt. Urged to cut down their beautiful cherry orchard and sell the land for holiday cottages, the family struggles to act decisively. Vigorous and profound, this new version of Chekhov's classic play by Olivier award-winner Simon Stephens, from a literal translation by Helen Rappaport, is an anguished and heartbreaking love letter to a society in violent transition. | |||||

Synopsis: | Retains the main plot of the original but relocates the action to Scotland in the 1980s. In the far Northeast, time is almost up for the Ramsay-Mackays - their grand old house and the wonderful cherry orchard that goes with it are all that is left of their once-large fortune - and the vultures are circling. . .Malky McCracken is an up-and-coming young investor, eager to free himself from his working class roots and make his name as a serious businessman. His zealous pursuit of the estate is countered by his fondness for the family themselves, not least adopted daughter Verity. A comic and moving examination of a family, and those who surround it, revealing personal absurdities and tragedies in equal measure. | |||||

Synopsis: | Faced with the imminent loss of her family estate, Lyubov Andreyevna Ranyevskaya returns to her ancestral home and neighboring cherry orchard to see if she can find a way to save them. She and her family soon discover, however, that there is more at stake than the beloved old house and orchard. Great changes, frightening and exhilarating, for them and for Russia, lie just ahead. This lively, touching, surprisingly funny translation of Chekhov's classic play will delight audiences and actors alike as it illuminates the joys of a new world being born, the sorrows of an old world passing away, and the timeless absurdity of the human condition. | |||||

Synopsis: | The Cherry Orchard opens with the return of an aristocratic Russian woman and her family to their estate, which includes a large cherry orchard, and just before it is auctioned to pay the mortgage. Even though, they are presented with opportunities to save their home they fail to act and the play ends with the property being sold to the son of a former serf, and with them leaving to the sound of the cherry orchard being destroyed. The Cherry Orchard exposes both the failure of the aristocracy to maintain its status and the ineptitude of the bourgeoisie to find a worthwhile purpose for their newly found materialism. The play further reveals the socio-economic forces at work in Russia at the turn of the 20th century, such as the rise of the middle classes after the abolition of serfdom (mid-19th century) and the annihilation of the aristocracy. | |||||

| Oh, the trees! Nothing but white and green as far as you can see - remember, Lyuba? Oh my lovely childhood. Waking up to happiness, looking out at blossom and trees and there they are - the same trees, the same blossom - after cruel winter, warmth and light and feeling! In his masterpiece The Cherry Orchard, Chekhov maintains an exquisite balance between elegiac celebration of the romance of the past, as embodied in the cherry orchard in full bloom, and the awesome prescience of what is so soon to overwhelm Russia - revolution. The themes are majestic, and yet at the centre of the play is Ranevskaya, a tragic woman who lacks adroitness for survival in a changing world but who has one asset: a capacity for love. It is her solution - and Chekhov's | |||||

| Chekhov's characteristic genius and feeling for a society transition are most fully expressed in his last great play, the Cherry Orchard. It is a comedy in a form peculiar to Chekhov and not easily defined, showing as it does fifteen widely differentiated characters in situations that are by turn farcical, tragic and romantic. Written in 1903, the year before he died, the play tells of an old family estate up for auction and how, with the sale, a whole way of life comes to an end. | |||||

Synopsis: | The play takes place on the grounds of Lyubov Andreyevna Ranevskaya's estate, somewhere in the provinces of Russia. Lopakhin, a sometime peasant who has become a wealthy businessman, and Dunyasha, the maid, are waiting for Lyubov. She has been away from home a long time, living in Paris with her lover. When she arrives with her daughter, Anya, she is welcomed by her brother, Gayev, and other family, friends, staff and neighbors. Lyubov and Gayev recall happy times from their childhoods on the estate. But unless the family can raise enough money to save it, the estate will have to be sold to clear Lyubov's debts. They concoct several plans, one of which entails cutting down their famous cherry orchard. But no one plan is settled upon. As August approaches, when the estate must be auctioned off to meet the mortgage payments, what unfolds in this household is a comedy-drama of timeless, bittersweet beauty. THE CHERRY ORCHARD is universally acknowledged as one of the masterpieces of world theatre. | |||||

| Written in 1904, the Cherry Orchard presaged the waning influence of the Russian aristocracy and the social upheaval that reverberated throughout the country a decade later. Chekhov's elegy chronicles Madame Ranevskaya's futile attempt to save her ancestral estate and its beloved cherry orchard. After five years abroad, she returns to the Russian countryside, and finds a tidal wave of change enveloping her homeland. Carol Rocamora's new adaptation mines the heartbreaking humor and sensitive humanity of Chekhov's play | |||||

Synopsis: | Faced with the imminent loss of her family estate, Lyubov Andreyevna Ranyevskaya returns to her ancestral home and neighboring cherry orchard to see if she can find a way to save them. She and her family soon discover, however, that there is more at stake than the beloved old house and orchard. Great changes, frightening and exhilarating, for them and for Russia, lie just ahead. This lively, touching, surprisingly funny translation of Chekhov's classic play will delight audiences and actors alike as it illuminates the joys of a new world being born, the sorrows of an old world passing away, and the timeless absurdity of the human condition. | |||||

Synopsis: | The play, often seen as a cultural microcosm with ruminations about life and death, family, love and money, covers all the bases with a hearty cast of 16 characters to tell the embedded stories. Co-directors Christopher Henley and Gaurav Gopalan create a world of fantasy and farce to relay the alarmingly relevant passages that mirror the state of our own affairs in this day and time. The action of the play revolves around the characters interconnections as they relate to the disposition of the cherry orchard, its ancestral legacy, the endangerment of being sold, and the final act of its demise. | |||||

| Ranyevskaya returns more or less bankrupt after ten years abroad. Luxuriating in her fading moneyed world and regardless of the increasingly hostile forces outside, she and her brother snub the lucrative scheme of Lopakhin, a peasant turned entrepreneur, to save the family estate. In so doing, they put up their lives to auction and seal the fate of the beloved orchard. Set at the very start of the twentieth century, the Cherry Orchard captures a poignant moment in Russia's history as the country rolls inexorably towards 1917 | |||||

Synopsis: | The action takes place at the country estate of Madame Ranevskaya, an estate famed for its beautiful cherry orchardand soon to be sold at auction unless the delinquent taxes are paid. As the play begins Madame Ranevskaya has returned from Paris, where she has frittered away the last of her fortune on a cynical young lover, and it is soon apparent that neither she, nor her family and friends, can come to grips with the crushing reality which they must face, or truly fathom the loss which threatens them. Instead they continue to go on as if nothing had changed, and only the rich merchant Lopakhin, the nouveau riche son of a peasant, seems to realize the gravity of the situation. Ironically it is he who bids successfully for the estate and who sets his men to felling the trees as, in the bittersweet finale, Madame Ranevskaya departs again for Paris and the fragile promise of a new and perhaps better life. | |||||

| This powerful version of Chekhovs famous drama reflects the South African phenomenon of the 1990s. With the hindsight of the new millennium we can look back and see that the miracle did happen. The new order did take over from the old. The fruitless cherry orchard was chopped down. The old men who couldn't move with the times have been left behind and forgotten. Chekhov's great pre-revolutionary drama, dreaming of youthful energy replacing the worn-out inertia of a dying world, lends itself vividly to this new setting in post-revolutionary South Africa. | |||||

Synopsis: | Often called the comic Russian Hamlet, Chekhovs Nikolai Ivanov is a man constantly at odds with the world around him. His personal and professional lives collide in unexpected and humorous ways, as he struggles to dig himself out of debt and out of provincial boredom. The local doctor informs him that his wife is dying and accuses him of worsening her condition with his foul moods, yet Ivanov finds himself drawn to a beautiful young woman who happens to be the daughter of the family to whom he owes an enormous sum of money. In this fascinating early work by Anton Chekhov, we see the union of humor and pathos that would become his trademark. This version is in a sparkling translation by Curt Columbus, whose Chekhov translations have been proclaimed by Variety as savvy, clear, fair-minded, and right-headed. | |||||

Synopsis: | Ivanov, a driving force in local government and a visionary landowner, feels burnt out at thirty-five. Once the pioneer of scientific farming methods and of education for peasants, he now drowns in bureaucracy and debt, his large estate neglected. While his wife is dying, Sacha, a young, educated woman, falls in love with Ivanov and determines to save him. Set in a country suffering from political, ideological and spiritual stagnation, Chekhov's first full-length play anticipates the explosive revolutionary atmosphere of Russia at the turn of the century. Production at the National Theatre (Cottesloe) in September 2002. | |||||

Synopsis: | Ivanov, a landowner who farms a large estate, is in debt, and his wife, whom he no longer loves, is dying of tuberculosis. He owes money everywhere and has reached the point of despair. The love of Sasha, a young girl in the neighborhood, seems to offer him a way out, but the neighbors accuse him of merely trying to obtain the girl's money. He is torn by feelings of guilt when his wife dies, but is determined to marry Sasha. During the period of their engagement even this relationship sours on him, and on the morning of his wedding day, he can no longer live a lie and he shoots himself. A series of brilliant character parts enliven this semi-tragic play with moments of great humor. | |||||

Synopsis: | East and West meet in Light in the Dark: Chekhov Shorts. The evening begins with Swan Song (1887), about an alcoholic actor and a prompter who get locked into a theater overnight. The prompter is left to ease the actor's woes about a life wasted in pursuit of art. This piece is accompanied by The Bear(1888), in which a widow in mourning is visited by a persistent bill collector. Rounding out the evening are two short interludes: "Salpuri," a traditional Korean dance of mourning, and Pamina's aria from The Magic Flute by Mozart. | |||||

Synopsis: | On his Uncle Sorin's lakeside estate, Constantine's new play premieres to disdainful reactions from the family and friends who have gathered: Masha; her future husband Medvedenko; Dorn, a lecherous doctor; Shamrayev, manager of the estate; and his wife Polina. Constantine's mother, the famous actress Madame Arkadina (and prima donna), is not one to suppress her true feelings on her son's contribution to the theatre: She abhors it. Humiliated, Constantine sulks over his life, his art, and dotes on the play's star, the woman he loves, Nina, who is infatuated with Madame Arkadina's companion, the established writer Boris Trigorin. Since Trigorin is the object of affection for Nina, as well as Madame Arkadina, he becomes the object of scorn and jealousy for Constantine. In an attempt to explain his brooding, morbid nature, Constantine presents Nina with a dead seagull, which he has just shota sacrificial symbol of events to come. Before the evening is over the characters' dreams, infidelities, and self-deceptions will be revealed: Nina's reluctance to love Constantine; Trigorin's lust for Nina; Masha's love for Constantine and boredom with her new husband; Dorn's insecurities on his aging appearance and his affair with Polina; and Sorin's constant pleadings with his sister Arkadina to accept and encourage his nephew, her son. Two summers later finds Constantine the successful writer; Masha, a drunk, lamenting her love for Constantine; Madame Arkadina, haggard and struggling to hold onto Trigorin; and Nina, returning to the lake after her failed acting career and rueful involvement with Trigorin, seeking sympathy and understanding from the disturbed Constantine, who still loves her enough to take his own life. | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Anton Chekhov | |||||
Synopsis: | this version of Chekhov's early, problematic play is total theatre: visually daring, perpetually novel and superlatively acted. Compromise yourself to attend. Beside a sparkling river, the story of irresistibly inconstant schoolmaster Platonov and his lovers unfolds. The extant script is seven hours long. Maly director Lev Dodin's shortened adaptation seems like a rough, heady concentrate of all that is Chekhovian. There's landed idleness, moral equivocation, the rise of the middle classes, but dealt with in youthful, Technicolor drama, all the more energetic as breathtaking theatrical coups come with the frequency of unwanted buses. Time seems arbitrary as Sergey Kuryshev's massive, charismatic hero swims from encounter to amorous encounter. The background is never still, as partying minor characters dive headlong into the river or tootle jazz instruments and dance with blind decadence that recalls La Regle du Jeu. Front stage, we witness romantic interplays of high emotional subtlety from an author of profound insight, and, from Platonov's women, performances of such fully realised personality that English surtitles seem otiose. Three and a half hours of Russian zip by. | |||||

Synopsis: | PLATONOV is Chekhovs first play, and it went unproduced during his lifetime. Finding himself on a downward spiral fueled by lust and alcohol, Platonov proudly adopts as his motto speak ill of everything. A shining example of the chaos that reigned in his era, Platonov is a Hamlet whose father was never murdered, a Don Juan who cheats on his wife and his mistress, and the hero of the as-yet unwritten great Russian novel of his day. | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Anton Chekhov after Platonov | |||||
Synopsis: | Anton Chekhov's first play was a sprawling, unstructured epic but it marked out the style and themes he would return to in his later masterworks from The Seagull toThe Cherry Orchard. It remains a mysterious, unpolished gem. The manuscript, left unpublished until almost two decades after Chekhov's death, lacked a title. Over the years it has inspired various adaptations - Wild Honey, Fatherlessness, The Disinherited -but it is most commonly referred to as Platonov, the name of the man at its centre. And yet, the play has always contained another extraordinarily rich and complex character - that of Anna Petrovna. Taking on these roles are the fearsome talents of Cate Blanchett and Richard Roxburgh. Irish director John Crowley, renowned for his work on the West End and Broadway, brings his lean and precise theatrical vision. And, as with his 2010 adaptation of Uncle Vanya, Andrew Upton lends his distinctive voice, brimming with vitality, to this tale of yearning, vodka and shattered dreams. | |||||

Synopsis: | Promise is set in Nebraska in the late 1930s during the development of the US Air Force leading up to World War II and follows the lives of a family struggling to achieve the American dream during a time of economic depression and political upheaval. The Peters siblings moved from New York City to Nebraska in 1927. It is now 1938 and after the death of their mother they find themselves trapped, caring for an ailing father in a tiny town with no hope of achieving the American dream. That is until the arrival of two newcomers to town shakes them to the core and opens the door to possibilities they had never imagined. This adaptation shines light on a generation of people who were given every opportunity to flourish but political and economic circumstances leave them floundering and failing ? a situation that resonates deeply with so many people today. | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Anton Chekhov (My Life) | |||||
Synopsis: | Chekhov's long story My Life, upon which this play is based, was written in 1896 during the period of his maturity as a story writer. His work of this time is a powerful reflection of contemporary Russian life. The story Ward 6 for example, set in a decrepit provincial hospital, with one terrible ward for the mentally sick, is such a strong image of the Russian intellectual's dilemma, that the young Lenin was reported after reading it 'to have been seized with such a horror that he could not bear to stay in his room. He went out to find someone to talk to; but it was too late: they had all gone to bed. "I had absolutely the feeling", he told his sister the next day, "that I was shut up in Ward 6 myself"'. | |||||

Synopsis: | With Russian Roulette, Prescod douses Chekhov's 'Dangers of Tobacco,' 'Reluctant Tragic Hero,' and 'Marriage Proposal' with colloquial language and allusions to Pop Americana. In 'Dangers of Tobacco,' a man struggles to give a lecture thrust upon him by his overpowering wife, until her mental hold on him leads him to the point of mental breakdown in the middle of his presentation. 'Reluctant Tragic Hero' follows a similar journey, as office life, a train, and mosquitoes turn an ordinary man into a near-homicidal monster, while 'Marriage Proposal' pits romance against land disputes, disfigured dogs, and a heart murmur | |||||

| In 19th Century rural Russia, an anxious young writer prepares the first performance of his new play for the two women in his life. The consequences are devastating, with everybody in love with the wrong person, and death hovering close by. Through both comedy and tragedy, Seagull explores lives that are precariously balanced between love and indifference success and failure, hope and despair. This is classic Chekhov with the original censor's cuts restored. | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Anton Chekhov | |||||
Synopsis: | Written in 1896 this is a comic play of aspiration and failure. Nina aspires to be an actress, Kostya a writer. Madame Arkadina and Trigorin are already these things. Can the young people's dreams come true or will they sour when confronted with the adult world? This adaptation relocates the action to the roaring 1920's. The Bright Young Things have changed the mood in town fuelled by the boom of jazz, fashion and the arts, but on an estate in the country there is only a lake, and the people around it burn for something more. We intend to create a fresh, concise story for a modern audience who may not be familiar with the romantic and dramatic devices that Chekhov uses, whilst still retaining the feel and power of the original. We feel that placing the characters in this era adds further depth to Nina's yearning and Konstantin's desire to be different in addition to the needs and wants of all the other characters. The script will be edited to run straight through at no more than 90 minutes with minimal changes to the characters and plot. The casting of a younger Trigorin will be the only main change in the dynamic of the play, furthering his catalytic role amongst the characters. | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Anton Chekhov | |||||
| In a letter to his friend Alexei Suvorin, in 1895, Chekhov wrote that he was working on a new play: "A comedy - three females, six males, four acts, a landscape (a view of a lake), much conversation about literature, little action, and five tons of love." The Seagull is Chekhov's extraordinary gathering of a group of bruised and incandescent dreamers who cannot, no matter how they try, get what they want. It is also one of the masterpieces of theatre about theatre; an exploration of how telling stories and coining symbols interacts with life. Benedict Andrews' adaptation brilliantly reawakens the spirit of Chekhov's great play. Set in a world which is at once Russia then and Australia now, this new version is charged with all the good faith and natural poetry of Chekhov's original. | |||||

Synopsis: | On a summer's day in a makeshift theatre by a lake, a bold new play is to be performed. It is the work of a young, would-be playwright, Konstantin, who is searching for a new, more authentic dramatic form. The play stars his beautiful muse and neighbour, Nina. The assembled family audience includes his actress mother, Arkadina, who has just arrived from Moscow with the famous novelist, Trigorin. What happens during, and in the days immediately after, this play's first performance will change not just the course of the summer, but the lives of everyone involved, for ever after. This masterly meditation on love and art is both comic and tragic, and marks the birth of the modern stage. | |||||

Synopsis: | This is a new adaptation of Chekhov's play, written and directed by Lance Hewett. An idealistic young writer in the thrall of two women, the ambitious actress he loves, and his actress mother terrified of growing old. Misfit romantics in an environment filled with, as Chekhov calls it, "a ton of love." In Chekhov's most personal and heartfelt play, his firm belief that "life without purpose is no life at all," is the overwhelming themebut humor, irony, and warmth cut through even the darkest moments, letting our own spirits soar. | |||||

| We need the theatre, couldn't, couldn't do without it. Could we? A successful actress visits her brother's isolated estate far from the city, throwing the frustrated residents unfulfilled ambitions into sharp relief. As her son attempts to impress with a self-penned play, putting much more than his pride at stake, others dream of fame, love and the ability to change their past. Chekhov's darkly comic masterpiece is reignited for the 21st century by one of the most exciting new voices in British Theatre, Anya Reiss, Winner of the Most Promising Playwright at both the Evening Standard and Critics Circle awards. | |||||

Synopsis: | NAATCO's production of The Seagull takes its cue from Chekhov's subtitle: "A Comedy in 4 Acts." Director Gia Forakis excavates the vaudevillian sense of humor in the play and couples it with the bitter despair of Chekhov's characters to provoke what she calls "comedy's wicked step-cousin, the grotesque," where tragedy and comedy live alongside one another. This production employs an all-Asian cast. | |||||

Synopsis: | The Seagull, a spectacular failure on its first appearance, was the play which, on its second, established Anton Chekhov as an important and revolutionary dramatist. Here, amid 'the weariness of life in the country', the famous actress Arkadina presides over a household riven with desperate love, with dreams of success and dread of failure. It is her son, Konstantin, who one day shoots a seagull; it is the novelist, Trigorin, who will one day write the story of the seagull so casually killled; but it is Nina, 'the seagull' herself, whose life to come will rewrite the story. | |||||

Synopsis: | The setting is the estate of the wealthy Sorin, where a group of family and friends are spending the languid summer months. Included are Madame Arkadina, Sorin's sister and famous actress; her sensitive would-be-writer son, Treplyev; and the charming, successful author Trigorin. The action concerns the interweaving of their lives with the others, and all the romance, intrigue, hopes and disappointments that this life leads to. It is an absorbing and compelling tapestry and evocation of real life and real people and, ultimately, a deeply moving and revealing human experience. | |||||

The characters are a mostly hilarious collection of Chekhovian nebbishes: the anxious and undertalented lady writer who tries to read her five-act play out loud to a famous playwright; the minor government official who sneezes on a prominent government official; the burly Russian who subjects his delicate French visitor to rough country philosophy and gobs of hot mustard; the old actor on an empty stage; and the gentle man, scared of his wife, who fails to give a speech on the evils of tobacco." | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Anton Chekhov. Adaptation of Platonov by Helena Kaut-Howson and Paul Rhys | |||||
Synopsis: | A Tale of Sex, Vodka and Shattered Dreams. Village school teacher Platonov is a man who is loved by women. Despite his best intentions he is drawn into a series of extra-marital affairs that all hold the promise of escape from the provincial Russian reality where he and his circle of friends are trapped. Showing us a side to Chekhov that is funnier, more brutal and more wildly passionate than the writer we know, Sons Without Fathers shines a light on this band of disaffected thirty-somethings too old to move with the times, and too young to let go of their dreams. Consumed by bitterness and disappointment, they attempt to fill the void in their lives with sex and vodka, blaming their fathers for the mess they've been left in. | |||||

Synopsis: | Somewhere in the backwoods of Russia, the three Prozorov sistersOlga, Masha and Irinalive in the large, beautiful house their father has left them. Raised to be bastions of refinement and taste, but stranded amongst smalltown folk with no ambition, they cling desperately to memories of the bright, thriving Moscow they left as children. Unable to bear the ordinariness of their lives, tempers flare and all manner of appetites go unchecked, eliciting wild and dangerous responses from those around them and turning the proper Prozorov home into a place where anything can happen. Curt Columbus' THREE SISTERS is Anton Chekhov's rich tapestry of heartbreak and bad behavior. | |||||
