Chekhov on THREE SISTERS:
“But what I have written is a farce.”
Stanislavsky on THREE SISTERS:
“[Chekhov] was afraid of provincial life being exaggerated and caricatured, of his officers being turned into the usual heel-clickers with jingling spurs. He wanted us to play the parts of simple, charming, decent people in ‘untheatrical’ uniforms which looked as if they'd actually been worn.”"A natural-sounding translation by Richard Nelson."
David Hawley, Saint Paul Pioneer Press"...works against melodrama and sentiment..."
