Compare Uncle Vanya by Anton Chekhov, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Uncle Vanya is the first of Chekhov's three great masterpieces. Set on a remote farm in Russia, it tells of two obsessive love affairs that lead nowhere, and a flirtation that brings disaster. Written towards the end of the 1890s, it casts a diamond-hard glance towards our century. David Lan's new version of one of Chekhov's greatest plays, was commissioned for a co-production between the Royal Shakespeare Company and the Young Vic. Directed by Katie Mitchell, it premiered at the Young Vic, London, in March 1998, a century after its premiere. | Uncle Vanya by Anton Chekhov, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
