Charting a period of tumultuous change, Chekhov creates a cast of tangible and unforgettable characters with the Gayev family, whose destiny is both tragic and inevitable. Torn by powerful forces rooted deep in history and the society around them, their estate is hopelessly in debt, now they must decide whether to cut down their beautiful cherry orchard and sell the land for holiday cottages . . .
A touching tragi-comedy masterpiece, The Cherry Orchard was Chekhov's final work, and perhaps his best and most popular play.
