Synopsis: | Black Bread and Cucumber is Caroline Blakiston's acclaimed one-woman show about how she made history as the first British actress to play Chekhov in Russia, in Russian! Black Bread and Cucumber was written during 1992-3, following Caroline Blakistons unique experience playing Charlotta in The Cherry Orchard in Russia. She is the first English actress to play Chekhov in Russia in Russian. Her first performance was in 1991 at the Dramatichesky theatr in Taganrog- the town on the Sea of Azov in southern Russia where Anton Chekhov was born. In December 1994, she won the Golden Globe Award which is presented at Moscow each year to a foreign person who has made a special contribution to the Russian theatre. | |||||
