Genre: | Adaptation | |||||
| Parts: | Male | 4 | Female | 2 | ||
Parts other: | - | |||||
Notes: | Original Playwright - Anton Chekhov | |||||
Synopsis: | With Russian Roulette, Prescod douses Chekhov's 'Dangers of Tobacco,' 'Reluctant Tragic Hero,' and 'Marriage Proposal' with colloquial language and allusions to Pop Americana. In 'Dangers of Tobacco,' a man struggles to give a lecture thrust upon him by his overpowering wife, until her mental hold on him leads him to the point of mental breakdown in the middle of his presentation. 'Reluctant Tragic Hero' follows a similar journey, as office life, a train, and mosquitoes turn an ordinary man into a near-homicidal monster, while 'Marriage Proposal' pits romance against land disputes, disfigured dogs, and a heart murmur | |||||
