Teléfono 913601480 Ext. 5.! 628 21 38 74 NOTA DEL DIRECTOR La idea de “The Bridge Project” nació a partir de un simple deseo: que artistas, colaboradores y público de ambos lados del Atlántico experimentaran el trabajo, talento, y maestría teatral de unos y otros. Habiendo tenido el placer de trabajar tanto en Nueva York como en Londres, me di cuenta del poco intercambio que existe actualmente entre estas dos ciudades de gran tradición teatral. En 2002, mi décimo y último año como Director Artístico del Donmar Warehouse de Londres, me permití el lujo de dirigir Tío Vania de Chéjov y Noche de Reyes de Shakespeare. Posteriormente estas producciones fueron remontadas en el Harvey Theater de la BAM. Este doble cartel Londres/Nueva York fue el detonante para el inicio de las conversaciones que con el tiempo nos han llevado hasta The Bridge Project. Yo, junto con mi amigo Kevin Spacey, Joe Melillo de la BAM, y mi colaborador y productor asociado durante mucho tiempo Caro Newling empezamos a preguntarnos qué producción podría hacer desaparecer las barreras de un océano y la separación de las comunidades teatrales. Empezamos a ver como nuestra aventura transatlántica iba tomando forma y tenía dos hogares: uno en Nueva York en la BAM y uno en Londres en el Old Vic donde Kevin es el Director Artístico. Así pues, tengo el enorme placer de encontrarme una vez más aquí en este magnífico teatro trabajando simultáneamente en Chéjov y Shakespeare, en esta ocasión colaborando con el incomparable Tom Stoppard en su nueva versión de El jardín de los cerezos mientras también trabajo en el Cuento de Invierno, una de las últimas obras de Shakespeare – y todo con un reparto trasatlántico de excepcional talento especialmente reunido para este año inaugural de The Bridge Project. Sam Mendes SINOPSIS Después de cinco años en el extranjero, la sra. Ranevskya vuelve a casa porque su patrimonio y su tan amado Jardín de los Cerezos están a punto de ser vendidos para poder paliar las numerosas deudas familiares. Incapaz de comprender que el mundo que le rodea está cambiando para siempre, la familia ignora los ofrecimientos de ayuda y continúa justificando su extravagante tipo de vida. 5 THE CHERRY ORCHARD ! www.teatroespanol.es !

Compra una finca en Melikhovo donde planta un huerto de cerezos. 1896 Escribe La Gaviota que se estrena en San Petersburgo. La producción es un fracaso. Se inaugura el Teatro de Arte de Moscú. La salud de Chéjov se deteriora por la tuberculosis. 1898 Bajo la dirección de Stanislavski, El Teatro de Arte de Moscú produce La Gaviota con gran éxito. 1899 El Teatro de Arte de Moscú produce Tío Vania. 1901 El Teatro de Arte de Moscú produce Las Tres Hermanas. Chéjov se casa con la actriz Olga Knipper. 1904 El Jardín de los Cerezos, última obra de Chéjov, se estrenó el 17 de enero, día de su 44 cumpleaños.

  • O MAGIC LAKE Чайкаthe ENVIRONMENT of the SEAGULL the DACHA Дать Dat to Give
    “Twilight Moon” by Isaak Levitan, 1898 O MAGIC LAKE чайкаTHE ENVIRONMENT OF THE SEAGULL THE DACHA дать dat to give DEFINITION датьA seasonal or year-round home in “Russian Dacha or Summer House” by Karl Ivanovich Russia. Ranging from shacks to cottages Kollman,1834 to villas, dachas have reflected changes in property ownership throughout Russian history. In 1894, the year Chekhov wrote The Seagull, dachas were more commonly owned by the “new rich” than ever before. The characters in The Seagull more likely represent the class of the intelligencia: artists, authors, and actors. FUN FACTS Dachas have strong connections with nature, bringing farming and gardening to city folk. A higher class Russian vacation home or estate was called a Usad’ba. Dachas were often associated with adultery and debauchery. 1 HISTORYистория & ARCHITECTURE история istoria history дать HISTORY The term “dacha” originally referred to “The Abolition of Serfdom in Russia” by the land given to civil servants and war Alphonse Mucha heroes by the tsar. In 1861, Tsar Alexander II abolished serfdom in Russia, and the middle class was able to purchase dwellings built on dachas. These people were called dachniki. Chekhov ridiculed dashniki. ARCHITECTURE Neoclassicism represented intelligence An example of 19th century and culture, so aristocrats of this time neoclassical architecture attempted to reflect this in their architecture. Features of neoclassical architecture include geometric forms, simplicity in structure, grand scales, dramatic use of Greek columns, Roman details, and French windows. Sorin’s estate includes French windows, and likely other elements of neoclassical style. Chekhov’s White Dacha in Melikhovo, 1893 МéлиховоMELIKHOVO Мéлихово Meleekhovo Chekhov’s estate WHITE Chekhov’s house was called “The White DACHA Dacha” and was on the Melikhovo estate.

  • The Characterization of the Physician in Schnitzler's and Chekhov's Works
    THE PHYSICIAN IN SCHNITZLERIS AND CHEKHOV1S WORKS THE CHARACTERIZATION OF THE PHYSICIAN IN SCHNITZLER 'S Al''-ID CHEKHOV I S WORKS By LOVORKA IVANKA FABEK, B.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master Gf Arts McMaster University September 1985 MASTER OF ARTS (1985) McMaster University Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: THE CHARACTERIZATION OF THE PHYSICIAN IN SCHNITZLER'S AND CHEKHOV'S WORKS AUTHOR: LOVORKA IVANKA FABEK, B.A. (McMaster University) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Gerald Chapple NUMBER OF PAGES: viii, 146. ii ABSTRACT Arthur Schnitzler (1862-1931) and Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860-1904) were both writers as well as physicians. The latter profession had a significant influence on their works, which is evident in the frequent use of the doctor figure in their plays and prose works. What distinguishes Schnitzler and Chekhov from other writers of the fin-de,...si~c1e, is their ability to clinically observe psycho­ logical and social problems. Sclmitzler's and Chekhov's works contain "diagnosesJl made by their doctor figure. This study examines the respective qualities of a spectrum of six major types. There are mixed, mainly positive and mainly negative types of doctor figures, ranging from the revolutionary type down to the pathetic doctor figure and the calculating type. Dealing with differences as well as with similarities, the thesis concludes by showing how the characterization of the doctor figure sh.eds light on the authors that created them. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to express my gratitude to my Supervisor, Dr. Gerald Chapple, for initially suggesting the topic of this thesis and for his guidance and advice.
