Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

A fresh take on a classic by the Tony Award-winning playwright of The Humans “Stephen Karam is among the very best of his generation of playwrights.” —New York Magazine “The more you see Anton Chekhov’s final play, the weirder it seems… The Cherry Orchard contains distinctly bizarre touches: unexplained offstage noises, ominous portents of revolution, and a morbid ending that’s nearly Beckettian…Adapter Stephen Karam layers American accents (racial and immigration anxieties) into his lean, accessible script.” —Time Out New York Stephen Karam is known for his dedication to exploring the idiosyncrasies of human speech and behavior—the subtleties, the depth, and the wonderfully awkward minutiae. With this new adaptation of The Cherry Orchard, Chekhov’s canonical masterpiece about a family on the brink of bankruptcy, Karam’s fluid style pairs harmoniously with the work of the master playwright.
