THE WOOD DEMON

SECOND YEAR PRODUCTION | Autumn Season

28 - 31 March 2007 | Parade Space

by Anton Chekov | trans. S.S Koteliansky | directed by Francesca Smith

'Poignant, romantic and powerfully prophetic, this rarely performed early Chekhov offers a passionate prescription for our times.'

Full of unrequited love, prejudice and intellectual posturings, Chekhov's beautifully observed characters quarrel and bicker till the suicide of one of their company wakes them up.

The Wood Demon explores questions we are grappling with today: how to live, be happy and ensure there is a life worth living for future generations.
