The play deals with the loss of an estate held for generations by a newly poor noble family, and the rise before their very eyes of the ambitious son of an estate serf. The play exposes the complexities and embarrassments of desire under the harsh light of outmoded morality and religiosity. As always with Chekhov, the tragedy is bathed in humor, and the comedy is haunted by pathos. Macalester is a private liberal arts college with a full-time enrollment of 1,753 students.
