Published to tie in with the world premiere at the Abbey Theatre,
Dublin In Chekhov's tragi-comedy - perhaps his most popular play -
the Gayev family is torn by powerful forces, forces rooted deep in
history and in the society around them. Their estate is hopelessly
in debt: urged to cut down their beautiful cherry orchard and sell
the land for holiday cottages, they struggle to act decisively. Tom
Murphy's fine vernacular version allows us to re-imagine the events
of the play in the last days of Anglo-Irish colonialism. It gives
this great play vivid new life within our own history and social
consciousness.
