| Ah, yes. I vaguely remember that now that you mention it. The Goodman production was very energetic which I didn't quite expect. I am amateur though when it comes to Chekhov. I think my only exposure was a tv version of The Seagull with Rosemary Harris which I saw when I worked at The Paley Center. Of course, Ms. Harris was wonderful. |

| I think you probably mean Lee Grant in The Seagull. Rosemary Harris did play Arkadina at the Public Theatre, but there is no video (unless there is a TOFT video). Perhaps earlier she played Nina somewhere. Anyway, it's a 1974 Williamstown Theatre Festival production with Grant, Blythe Danner, Frank Langella, Kevin McCarthy, William Swetland, Marian Mercer, Olympia Dukakis and Louis Zorich that is probably the best known English-language television production, along with a BBC production with Zoe Caldwell and Stephen Rea. Linking the Williamstown production. Thanks for the report on the Goodman Cherry Orchard. You make it sound very good. |

| Ah, yes, I was confused. Thank you for the info. I think what was in my mind was Harris in a tv production of Uncle Vanya from 1963. It's been a good 30 years since I worked at The Paley Center. It was still called The Museum of Broadcasting when I worked there. My first job out of school. |

| Thanks for the link to the Williamstown production directed by Nikos Psacharopoulos. Brought back memories of the "good old days" of fabulous seasons there. | |
