A classic four-act romantic tragedy by Chekhov, Uncle Vanya
premiered to excellent reviews in 1899. Aleksandr Vladimirovich
Serebryakov is a former university professor, now retired in a
rural estate. His daughter Sonya and her husband - the titular
Vanya - manage his affairs. However all is not well in the
Serebryakov household, with drama swift to follow the professor's
announcement to sell his country estate. The result of this sudden
revelation is scheming, romantic and otherwise, between the play's
nine principle characters. The tensions crescendo as we see what
Vanya and others may resort to as the security to which they were
accustomed is imperilled, and difficulties thought consigned to the
past shockingly resurfaces. Essentially a extensive rewrite of his
play The Wood Demon, authored over a decade earlier, Uncle Vanya
reflects the stylistic improvements which Chekhov learned in the
intervening period.
