Work:: The Cherry Orchard (S2768)

The Cherry Orchard premiered at the Moscow Art Theatre 17 January 1904, on Chekhov's 44th birthday and only six months before his death.

Reviews

Aidan Bell: 09Nov21:
I'm not a fan of the minimalistic stagig, and I HATED Seagrove's playing a male role (why, why, oh why?), but the acting was world class, the play both amusing and moving. Loved it.

Alan Hobbs: 08Oct21:
Good acting, but way too long. The final 30 minutes was excruciating.
