Celebration of the 100th anniversary of the death of Anton Pvlovich Chekhov.
The National Theater Company of China presented its first international drama festival, called "Forever Chekhov." Opening with Platonov, Chekhov's little known first play directed by Wang Xiaoying, the month-long festival will also run two versions of The cheery orchard, one directed by Lin Zhaohua and the other produced by the Russian State Academic Youth Theater.
Zhao Youliang, president of the National Theater Company of China said : "One is to promote the communication between China's drama circle and our foreign counterparts. The other is to create opportunities for young actors who are the future of the National Theater company of China."
Lin Zhaohua, theater director commented : "It is a great shame that China's theaters do not stage Shakespeare and Chekhov."
