Comedy Chekhov
T2038377318
Early in his career Chekhov wrote a number of short comedy pieces which were very successful in his lifetime but are less well-known now. Three actors from Bridge Theatre Company (Richard Derrington, Mark Carey and Dani Carbery) present three of the plays, in an entertaining evening which showcases their virtuosity, and glimpses the dramatist's later preoccupations - life on the estates, squabbling landowners, unlikely romances, and the theatre itself.
