Ivanov
by Hare, David
Chekhov's first, but least known, major play in a brand new version from David Hare. The play focuses on a disillusioned Ivanov, satirising himself as an imitation Hamlet, who no longer loves his adoring ailing wife, and embarks on a passionate affair with his best friend's daughter. This version was first given at the Almeida Theatre, London, in 1997.
