Once Gerd stopped him with her
hand on his arm. They listened,

faces.
At the clearing in front of the

They hurried forward, quick

most at the porch, in front of
the gaunt building, they saw a
dark figure move out from be-
hind a pillar. Gerd stifled a
cry. They ducked back. But at
that moment the moon swept
free, and in the pale, clear light
they saw the tall, black-uniform-

Play Written in 1900.
Thus speaks character in "The
Three Sisters" which Chekhov wrote
in 1900, II years before the sweep
ing away of the czariSt regime by
the revolution. Though it is play
of family life in the provinces, the
very drama of its poignant revela-
ton of the thWarted longings,
dashed hopes and aspirations of
each of the characters is a portent
of the family energy that would
one day be released. For it is
the distinction of Chekhov that in
an era still repressive of all normal
development, social, economic and
educational, among the millions Of
Russia, he drew forth a sympathetic
understanding of the plight of folk
broken in will by the conditions Of
a brutal autocracy but Iclinging to
faith and the charms of human
feeling. While those of the intelli-
gentsia reflect the fine flower Of
their culture in their easy conversa-
ton. rare in our own realistic plays,
they remind us of how generations
of Russians were driven inward to
the life of their minds before the

there are draggy moments in this
piece, as we'll as quick, vivid ones.
But, all told, let it be said that
pure theater goes forward at the
Martin Beck, together with sufi-
cheney of zest, mirth and good en-
tertainment. The Lunts are pro-
vided with many opportunities for
expressing in full and in wide vari-

has not diminished their zest in
fanciful portrayal, nor their Joy in
comic situation, in all of which they
disport themselves in an alluring
scenic environment-"the glory of
the tropic seas" Costumes dazzle
and beguile and, in sum, all is we'll.

the piece does Just this and as well

The play has to do with a married
couple living on a West Indies

is the lovely. bored wife of Pedro, a
rather stuffy, immensely rich re-

Bored to distraction, Manuela
seeks solace in reading a book con-

neither she, nor the audience knows,
is that Manuela's old bore of
