About the Show
By Anton Chekhov
Directed by Melia Bensussen
with Marin Hinkle & Marsha Mason
Chekhov’s beloved masterpiece The Cherry Orchard blossoms anew in a luminous production directed by Melia Bensussen. When the aristocratic Ranevskaya family returns to their beloved estate, they face an impossible choice: save their cherished cherry orchard–or let it go forever.
Funny and absurd, beautiful and heartbreaking, Chekhov’s writing captures the portrait of a family on the brink of profound change. Featuring acclaimed performers Marin Hinkle (The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel) and Marsha Mason, this production brings fresh urgency and emotional depth to a timeless story of love, legacy, and the cost of holding on when everything around you is moving forward.
