Description: The Cherry Orchard was first produced by the Moscow Art Theatre on Chekhovs last birthday, January 17, 1904. Since that time it has become one of the most critically admired and performed plays in the Western world, a high comedy whose principal theme, the passing of the old semifeudal order, is symbolized in the sale of the cherry orchard owned by Madame Ranevsky.The play also functions as a magnificent showcase for Chekhovs acute observations of his characters foibles and for quizzical ruminations on the approaching dissolution of the world of the Russian aristocracy and life as it was lived on their great country estates. While the subject and the characters of the work are, in a sense, timeless, the dramatic technique of the play was a Chekhovian innovation. In this and other plays he developed the concept of indirect action, in which the dramatic action takes place off stage and the significance of the play revolves around the reactions of the characters to those unseen events.Reprinted from a standard edition, this inexpensive well-made volume invites any lover of theater or great literature to enter the world of Madame Ranevsky, Anya, Gayef, Lopakhin, Firs, and the other memorable characters whose hopes, fears, loves, and general humanity are so brilliantly depicted in this landmark of world drama.

Lubow and her daughter Anya return from their long absence in Paris to her landed gentry ancestral estate. She is penniless after squandering all the money she had, and then a lot she didnt, in addition to having been virtually robbed by her second husband. She gets there just in time for the estate, including the vast, old cherry orchard, about to be auctioned for the ever increasing dept. The impoverished nobility is still served and despised by the children of the slaves that the family owned. Lopakhin, a dubious family friend and an unenthusiastic would-be suitor to Lubows adopted daughter Varya and whose father was once a peasant serf on the estate, is now a rich land developer. He tries to convince Lubow and her brother Leo to sell the orchard for re-division into villa-in-the-country plots in order to get her out of the ever increasing debt. But Lubow is paralyzed. For her the cherry orchard is her tie to her previous life, to her childhood, without which she has no existence. At the end the orchard is bought by Lopathin at the auction and the family leaves and is dispersed while the sounds of axes felling the cherries resonate in the background.As many, if not all of Chekhovs writings, the play is a painful satire on the intellectual vacuum and the existential stupidity of Russian penniless nobility, pathetic intellectuals, and fawning useless servants. The emerging moneyed class is not much better, looking on possession as the only proof of worth. There are more characters in this play and they are all pathetic, ridiculous, avaricious, pompous. Whether Chekhov thought it was a comedy or not, it projects the feeling of despair.In many ways, selling the orchard is like abandoning Tara. But Lopakhin is no Rett Butler. He is successful but has no flair, not even roguish appeal. The play is beautifully written and the characters painted with a fine and sensitive brush. It even does have modern relevance, where the previously respected old money and academic intellect give way to a new generation of fast Wall Street operators, transitory sports, rock, and reality celebrities - a new world of virtual values. But to fully appreciate Chekhovs masterpiece, one has to understand the Russian melancholic soul, which permeates the atmosphere of the play. Dated but great!
