Thirty Three Swoons

A critique on Thirty Three Swoons In the play Thirty Three Swoons, which is a collection of four farces written by Anton Palovish Chekhov. The play consists of these short productions in order, Swan Song, The Bear, The Proposal, and The Wedding. Each of them their own unique plays that pokes fun on the Russian middle class. The whole production, I believed played on and made fun of a society that is not always familiar …

…society, which are foreign to me. The last play in particular had too many actors, whose roles were not specified and were not needed. The acting in The Proposal, was very dramatically, and portrayed the feelings of the characters very well. Although the acting was good, it still was too long; I kept waiting for a conclusion, which finally came yet it was lacking drama compared to the scenes of the argument that had occurred.
