Theatre and The Family, Anton Chekhov ’The Cherry Orchard’ - Professor Belinda Jack (novideo)
Professor Jack explores the themes and questions raised in Anton Chekhov’s last play ’The Cherry Orchard’
Trees were of great importance to Chekhov. Some have described him as the first ecological writer of the twentieth century. The Cherry Orchard is Chekhov’s last play. It opened at the Moscow Art Theatre on 17 January 1904. The first production rendered it as a tragedy but Chekhov had intended it to be a comedy.
