Summerfolk
by Stephen Mulrine, Maxim Gorky, Nina Raine, Moses Raine
Synopsis
Gorky's magnificent response to Chekhov's THE CHERRY ORCHARD was written in 1904, the year Chekhov died.
It is set in a world of "false hopes and unfulfilled promises," where dachas have been subdivided into summer colonies and the newly rich idle away their time in unhappy romantic alliances.
Gorky's characters are still dreaming of a better life, but they are increasingly aware of impending revolution.
