THE CHERRY
ORCHARD

Anton Chekhov was a master whose daring work revolutionized theatre. Robert Burstein declared that “there are none who bring the drama to a higher realization of its human role.” In “The Cherry Orchard”, Chekhov’s last full-length play in a new translation by master dramatist Tom Stoppard, an impoverished landowning family is unable to face the fact that their estate is about to be auctioned off. Lopakhin, a local merchant, presents numerous options to save it, including cutting down their prized cherry orchard. But the family is stricken with denial. “The Cherry Orchard” charts the precipitous descent of a wealthy family, and in the process creates a bold meditation on social change and bourgeois materialism.
