Synopsis "Plays by Anton Chekhov, Adapted by Richard Nelson"
This collection includes three full-length plays: THE WOOD DEMON, THE SEAGULL, and THREE SISTERS.THE WOOD DEMON: "In the play I portray a disgusting, selfish, provincial fellow who for twenty years has been reading works on art but understanding nothing about the subject-a man who brings despondency and gloom to all those near him, who is not accessible to laughter and music-and who, despite all this, is undoubtedly happy."Anton ChekhovTHE SEAGULL: "It's a comedy with three female and six male roles, four acts, a landscape (view of a lake), lots of talk of literature, little action and 180 lbs of love."Anton ChekhovTHREE SISTERS: "But what I have written is a farce."Anton Chekhov "[Chekhov] was afraid of provincial life being exaggerated and caricatured, of his officers being turned into the usual heel-clickers with jingling spurs. He wanted us to play the parts of simple, charming, decent people in 'untheatrical' uniforms which looked as if they'd actually been worn."Konstantin Stanislavsky
