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.
