Excellent- think of Chekov's "Uncle Vanya", but better March 31, 2001 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
"A Month in The Country" is the sad tale of a woman who is loved by her husband and a close family friend, and yet has fallen in love with her son's tutor, despite the fact that he loves her daughter. Confused? Welcome to Russian theatre.The play is nowhere near is complicated as it first sounds, it has a beautifully rhythmic flow that takes you through the hilarity of the situation, but also the sadness. The role of the bored housewife lusting after Belyaev urges you to wonder whether she is a cruel temptress or a wronged heroine- in the same way Chekhov presented Yeliena in "Uncle Vanya". If you haven't read Chekhov's play, you should have a look at it too- but A Month in the Country is, for itself, definitely worth a very good look.
