  Directed by Sean Graney

§  "exceptionally intelligent, fresh, and thought-provoking..." - Chris Jones, Chicago Tribune

§   "...intelligent cast...", "Like few directors tackling Chekhov, Graney manages to show just how petty, insignifigant, foolish, and noble human beigns can be." - Justin Hayford, The Reader

§   "In its opening night, the classic was brought to tragicomic life by a talented ensemble, and under the deft direction of Sean Graney, sparkled with Chekhov's wit and on-target view of class consciousness.", "The Hypocrites ...bring the work of Chekhov to irreverent life." - Rick Reed, Windy City Times
