In Tom Stoppard's adaptation of Chekhov's tragicomedy of inertia and loss an aristocratic family cling to their sheltered lives in a picturesque estate while the forces of social change beat on the walls outside. Completely bankrupt, Lyubov Ranyevskaya returns with her daughter Anya from Paris to her childhood home, to the beautiful cherry orchard outside the house and to her grief. The estate is paralysed by debt, but she and her billiard-playing brother refuse to save their finances by having the vast orchard cut down to build holiday cottages.
