Three Degrees of Frost (2000)

This is a staging of ‘The Cherry Orchard’ by Anton Chekhov. On stage there’s a room, and some trees. There are some actors, and a script, and it’s been translated. Everything is ready.

We think we know what it means. We think, although it is a hundred years old, that it’s still relevant. We think, although it’s Russian, that it’s still, kind of, English. It says what we want to say. It tells us about us.

This is a staging of The Cherry Orchard. Thank you.
