Photos: First Look At Chekhov's THE CHERRY ORCHARD At North Coast Repertory Theatre

Anton Chekhov's beloved masterwork is a rich tapestry of the human condition woven into a humorous and haunting tale.

With universal themes of societal upheaval, love, loss, grief, envy, and ambition, THE CHERRY ORCHARD remains as relevant and powerful today as it was when it first premiered in 1903. Serious theatre-lovers will not want to miss this classic tale of heightened human drama.
