Dear Chekhov (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | Michel Tremblay | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

A table set outside in beautiful fall weather. A turkey roasting in the oven. Everything seems set for a festive family dinner - except that the playwright wants to rewrite his play. In Dear Chekhov, renowned playwright Michel Tremblay (re)examines an old unfinished script, a tribute to the legendary author of The Cherry Orchard and The Seagull. Will the play stand up in performance? The question obsesses the narrator and Tremblay's alter ego, Jean-Marc. And then there is Benoît, the author-brother, who settles his accounts with a detestable young critic, the current flame of their sister. This Great Actress has given her career a boost by working with a trendy millennial director, trashing Chekhov - and their mother's memory in the process. Dear Chekhov presents Michel Tremblay in total control of his art, holding a mirror up to the theatre in an irresistible "Chekhovian reflection of what we are."

Cast of 3 women and 5 men
