The Sea-Gull Anton Checkov A Play In Four Acts New Edition The
Seagull is a play by Russian dramatist Anton Chekhov, written in
1895 and first produced in 1896. The Seagull is generally
considered to be the first of his four major plays. It dramatises
the romantic and artistic conflicts between four characters: the
famous middlebrow story writer Boris Trigorin, the ingenue Nina,
the fading actress Irina Arkadina, and her son the symbolist
playwright Konstantin Treplev. The character of Trigorin is
considered Chekhov's greatest male role, though, like Chekhov's
other full-length plays, The Seagull relies upon an ensemble cast
of diverse, fully developed characters. In contrast to the
melodrama of mainstream 19th-century theatre, lurid actions (such
as Konstantin's suicide attempts) are not shown onstage. Characters
tend to speak in ways that skirt around issues rather than
addressing them directly; in other words, their lines are full of
what is known in dramatic practice as subtext, or text that is not
spoken aloud.
