Synopsis
Chekhov's first full-length play anticipates the explosive revolutionary atmosphere of Russia at the turn of the century.
Time Out (San Francisco)
The director wanted 'a language that would sound, in the mouths of American actors, as fresh and vivid as the original Russian.' Schmidt succeeds. Slang and modern idiom are woven almost seamlessly into the script.
