The Cherry Orchard
Main Stage
August 11 - 22, 2004
by - Anton Chekhov
translated by - Paul Schmidt
Chekhov returns to the Main Stage as part of WTF's great tradition of presenting the classics in breathtaking revivals. What better finale to our fiftieth season, and more fitting farewell to the Adams Memorial Theatre before its renovation, than Chekhov's last and most poignant drama. The old world is giving way to the new, but the Gaevs have neglected to notice the bewildering changes in the Russian way of life. The fate of the beautiful orchard becomes a symbol of the fate of the characters in this masterpiece.
Running Time: 2 hours, 20 minutes including one intermission
