| Notes: | Original Playwright - Anton Chekhov | |||||
| Synopsis: | The play, often seen as a cultural microcosm with ruminations about life and death, family, love and money, covers all the bases with a hearty cast of 16 characters to tell the embedded stories. Co-directors Christopher Henley and Gaurav Gopalan create a world of fantasy and farce to relay the alarmingly relevant passages that mirror the state of our own affairs in this day and time. The action of the play revolves around the characters interconnections as they relate to the disposition of the cherry orchard, its ancestral legacy, the endangerment of being sold, and the final act of its demise. - Debbie Minter Jackson, DC Theatre Scene | |||||

To break up the affair, which he regards as a threat to his political ambitions, the president employs the services of a slick opportunist, Wurm. Together they launch a cabal to convince Ferdinand that Luise is promiscuous. Believing the lies, Ferdinand poisons Luise and himself, only to realize the truth just before he dies. | |||||
