Anton Chekhov is one of the undisputed masters of world drama. He
is usually thought to hide himself behind his characters and
stories, keeping his own personality well off-stage. But when he
was young he wrote three plays - Platonov, Ivanov and The Seagull -
which, with their thrilling sunbursts of youthful anger and
romanticism, reveal a very different playwright from the one known
by his mature, more familiar work. Young Chekhov brings these three
blazing dramas together in versions by internationally acclaimed
dramatist David Hare, offering the chance to explore the birth of a
revolutionary dramatic voice. The plays show a writer freeing
himself from the constraints of nineteenth-century melodrama and
herald the shift into the twentieth century, and the birth of the
modern stage. The Young Chekhov season premiered at the Chichester
Festival Theatre in the autumn of 2015.
