Hapgood Theatre Company opens its fifth season with a dramatic classic adapted by a modern legend.
Chekhov's The Cherry Orchard, his final and perhaps greatest play, effortlessly blends elements of farce into the tragic tale of a family on the brink of losing their ancestral estate.
The titular orchard is the pride and joy of the estate
and holds years of family memories within its blossoms and branches.
This timeless tale is particularly resonant today, with its treatment of mortgage and debt and a changing socioeconomic climate.
As the family's
legacy is lost to debt, a former serf turned businessman stands ready
to to tear down the trees and build a new development.
Hapgood Theatre Company's staging is an adaptation by Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright David Mamet (Glengarry Glen Ross).
