Details
Chekhov's final masterpiece The Cherry Orchard gets a compelling and unique overhaul in this fresh and powerful adaptation. Volatile aristocrat Ranyevskaya returns after years of self-imposed exile to discover that her home and beloved cherry orchard is to be auctioned to pay off the family debt. Love clashes with ambition, and modernity with tradition in this fast-paced and emotional performance based on Chekhov's much loved play. The first production premièred as part of Liverpool’s Capital of Culture 08, and was developed by the UK's award-winning Kolectiv Theatre Company in a ground-breaking collaborative project with Iran's Bazi Theatre Company and Knjazevsko Srpski Teatar, Serbia, the first presentation.
