It was first performed at the Moscow Art Theatre in 1901, directed by acclaimed actor Konstantin Stanislavski--who also played the role of Aleksandr Ignatyevich Vershinin, a philosophizing artillery officer in love with middle Prozorov sister Masha. Reviews were mixed at first, but as the play continued to run, \u003ci\u003eThree Sisters\u003c\/i\u003e became a popular success, acclaimed by audiences and critics alike.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe play follows the Provorov family, focusing on sisters Olga, Masha, and Irina, as well as their brother Andrei. Each character struggles to balance their secret ambitions while facing the daily circumstances of reality. Olga, the oldest sister, is an unmarried schoolteacher who often finds herself responsible for the lives and happiness of others. Masha, the middle sister, is unhappily married to the kind Latin teacher Fyodor Kulygin, who knows about her affair with Lieutenant-Colonel Vershinin but continues to love and care for her. Irina, the youngest, is a vain and childish woman engaged to a man she respect but does not love. Andrei is initially an ambitious and energetic young man whose ill-fated marriage ruins not only his prospects of becoming a professor in Moscow, but his will to live as a man with any sense of self-respect. Natasha, who begins as an orphaned young woman unfit for high society, eventually emerges as a manipulative, envious woman whose love for her two children is matched only by her will to control the lives of the entire Prozorov family. \u003ci\u003eThree Sisters\u003c\/i\u003e by Anton Chekhov is a brilliant drama whose complex characters make us believe, for a time, in an art more real than life.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWith a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Anton Chekhov's \u003ci\u003eThree Sisters\u003c\/i\u003e is a classic of Russian literature reimagined for modern readers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen they first meet Natasha, the Prozorov sisters treat her with scorn.
