Ivanov

By Anton Chekhov, Adapted by David Hare
Directed by David Salter

Deep in debt and no longer in love with his wife, the once powerful Ivanov finds himself emotionally trapped by guilt and self-doubt. Plagued by the moral righteousness of his dying wife's doctor and in desperate need of distraction, Ivanov succumbs to the attentions of the beautiful Sasha – the daughter of his wealthy friend and benefactor.

The dominating theme of Ivanov is honesty…and – just as important – what its price is… David Hare
