Ivanov (Peyankov/Christensen)
by Anton Chekhov, Yasen Peyankov, Peter Christensen
Synopsis
The first of Chekhov's full-length dramas, Ivanov treads a fine line between broad comedy and tragic melodrama.

He is a "superfluous man," attracted to a beautiful young woman who threatens his moral foundations and leads him ultimately to tragedy.
