Nothing's new Everything's old. I'm exactly the same as ever Only more lazy More aimless More curmudgeonly...' One of the high points of world drama, Chekhov's bittersweet tale of frustrated lives and unrequited loves - by turns witty, playful, nostalgic and tragic - is captured in all its complexity by Bryony Lavery's spirited, sharply-written adaptation, first produced at Birmingham Rep in 2007.

FANTASTIC OH MY GOD

i’m finding that with chekhov i enjoy the ideas presented and think he does a great job putting characters in relatable positions, but his writing is unappealing and the story/characters don’t really do it for me. that could be a problem with translation though. this makes a nice companion piece with Anna Karenina(but what doesn’t, really) concerning the city vs. country relationship and happiness/fulfillment/work

*Read for class. Can't say that a lot has happened, but it was not tideous to read. A short play I might even enjoy in theatre.

I truly don't like Chekhov, but I've seen this play acted out and I think that, with the right direction and passionate actors, it can become a masterpiece.
