“The last act will be joyful…”
Chekhov on THE CHERRY ORCHARD in letter to Olga Knipper
“…a clean new
adaptation by the playwright Richard Nelson, is brisk, unfussily funny and
steeped in just enough emotion to give it a gloss of tender feeling without
drowning it in teardrops….
…Mr Nelson's
felicitous translation is stage-worthy and natural….”
