The Cherry Orchard

The Cherry Orchard

  • Jan 29, 2026 - Feb 22, 2026
    By Anton Chekhov and Translated by Paul Schmidt

    American Conservatory Theater Artistic Director Emerita Carey Perloff, who helmed last season’s wildly successful production of Waste, returns to helm the Russian playwright’s final work. This classic is set at the turn of the 20th century, where an aristocratic matriarch returns home to her family’s estate, which has fallen into debt. The house and beautiful cherry orchard are set to be auctioned off while the family resists solutions, desperate to preserve their way of life and ignore the changing times.
