My favourite writer is Anton Pavlovich Chekhov. In my opinion, he is the greatest Russian dramatist and short-story writer. I`m never tired of reading his plays and humorous stories.
some of his best stories there, including “The Seagull” and “Uncle Vanya”.

“The Seagull” was successfully performed as the first
production of the Moscow Art Theatre in 1898. From
then on, Chekhov was closely connected with this theatre and with its founder, K.S.Stanislavsky. In 1901 he married an Art Theatre actress, Olga Knipper, who acted in his play “The Three Sisters” the same year.

Chekhov`s health went from bad to worse and
he had to spend the remaining years in the
Crimea. “The Cherry Orchard”, his last play, was produced in 1904. Soon after the first night Chekhov died. He was 44.
