The Cherry Orchard
by Anton Chekhov
Translated by Jean-Claude Van Italle
There will be one 10-minute intermission.
Thursday–Saturday, February 26–28 at 7:30 pm
and Sunday, March 1 at 2:00 pm
Chekhov’s beloved classic follows a family facing the loss of their estate and its cherished cherry orchard. Madame Ranevskaya returns from Paris, unwilling to face the changes threatening her world. As denial clashes with reality, a self-made merchant seizes the land and cuts down the trees. Poignant, funny, and moving, The Cherry Orchard is a timeless story of love, loss, and change.
