The Cherry Orchard de Anton Chekhov

The Cherry Orchard: Oberon Modern Plays

Autor Anton Chekhov Adaptat de Gary Owen
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 12 oct 2017
Pembrokeshire, 1982. Things are going to change.This radical reworking of Chekhov's The Cherry Orchard places the action in early 80s Wales, at the dawn of another revolution - the Thatcher regime. Bloumfield sits on the sun-kissed south Pembrokeshire coast; a rambling, ramschackle old manor house where Rainey raised her children, surrounded by golden beaches and lush green orchards. But the death of her beloved son and husband sent Rainey fleeing to London, abandoning what remained of her family. Now, with the bank threatening to repossess, Rainey's daughters drag her back to Bloumfield. Rainey will have to face her ghosts - and her furious daughters - or lose everything. This reworking of Chekhov's play was first performed at the Sherman Theatre, Cardiff.

Recenzii

Now Chekhov's final and finest play, from 1903, is the latest twentieth-century masterpiece to get a good going-over. Actually, make that an excellent going-over . . . It's been pruned, yes, but this grimly witty tragicomedy is unmistakably Chekhov . . . and it teems with life.
Stephens [has] refocussed Chekhov's play into a potent study in feminine - rather than societal - collapse.
Chekhov was superb on the destructive impact of people who take no heed: who turn other people's lives upside down (Uncle Vanya) or blithely ignore warnings (Cherry Orchard). He was superb too on those who can see the dangers, but are powerless to do anything. Little wonder then, that these great plays feel so painfully pertinent now to audiences keenly aware of intractable global problems. Little wonder either that contemporary theatre-makers seek to meet his works in the spirit of innovation.
If Chekhov were planning a revenant visit to see how his work fares in England in the 21 century, this would be an opportune moment to come.
Revivals of classic plays are the lifeblood of theatre. They are the way in which the art form tests the reputation, relevance and validity of the masterpieces of the past.
