it really is a kind of Masterpiece in the way that it conveys interiority while being a play that is staged and you know it's not that you're getting the thoughts of the characters so it's really skillfully done the way that COV dramatizes the psychological states of his characters
Seagull (1915)
The scene is laid in the park on SORIN'S estate. A broad avenue of trees leads away from the audience toward a lake which lies lost in the depths of the park. The avenue is obstructed by a rough stage, temporarily erected for the performance of amateur theatricals, and which screens the lake from view. There is a dense growth of bushes to the left and right of the stage. A few chairs and a little table are placed in front of the stage.
i gave the segal five stars i thought it was brilliant and i can't wait to read more of czechos plays
