Anton Pavlovič Čehov
… In prav na tem, na tej nebrzdanosti, neposrednosti, frenetičnosti likov, sta gradila režiser Vito Taufer in z njim celotna zasedba igralcev, ki so like Čehova, kostumsko in scensko postavljene nekako v šestdeseta leta 20. stoletja, oživili zlasti v prepletu, prignanem do skrajnosti, smešnega in žalostnega, banalnega in vzvišenega, upanja in obupavanja. Pri tem sta se ponovno pokazali fantastična uigranost ansambla ljubljanske Drame in natančna, dosledna izdelanost prav vseh likov; najopaznejše so, poleg naslovnega junaka, seveda njegove ženske: Nataša Barbara Gračner, Maša Derganc in Polona Juh. /Vesna Jurca Tadel, Delo – Pogledi, 21. 4. 2010

It was this intractability and candour together with the frenetic nature of the characters on which Vito Taufer and the entire cast built. With the play set in the 1960s, Chekhov’s characters are brought to life through an interplay of the funny and the sad, the banal and the sublime, hope and despair-all taken to extremes. The fantastically harmonious performance of the Ljubljanska Drama ensemble and fully fleshed out characters are unmistakably there; apart from the main hero, the most noticeable are his women: Nataša Barbara Gračner, Maša Derganc and Polona Juh. /Vesna Jurca Tadel, Delo – Pogledi, 21 April 2010
Čehov naj bi dramo, ki je bila odkrita šele v njegovi zapuščini in leta 1923 natisnjena pod naslovom Drama brez naslova, napisal še kot študent medicine. Vsekakor gre za prvo njegovo ohranjeno dramsko delo, ki je zaradi svoje dolžine (v originalu obsega kar 160 tiskanih strani oziroma osem ur odrskega dogajanja) uprizarjano le v obliki različnih avtorskih priredb, največkrat poimenovanih po glavnem liku Platonovu. Drama brez naslova je morda najbolj zanimiva zato, ker gre za nekakšnega »Čehova pred Čehovom«. Če sicer za Čehova velja, da ukinja glavnega junaka, oziroma za glavnega junaka svojih dram postavlja »življenje samo«, posamezni liki pa so le njegovi ujetniki – kar se kaže v odsotnosti dogajanja, vse je le v podrobno niansiranem razpoloženju –, ima to delo kar nekaj melodramatičnih potez: glavni lik, učitelj Platonov, po svojih besedah srečno poročen, se nekega poletja zaplete v kar nekaj sočasnih ljubezenskih razmerij: z mlado vdovo po generalu Vojnicevu, z lastnico propadajočega posestva ter z ženo njenega sina; iz nekakšne obupane objestnosti pa izziva in osvaja tudi druga dekleta, kar se konča s streljanjem. Vendar gre bolj kot za donhuanovski, za hamletovski motiv nezmožnosti odločitve in dejanja odrešitve iz sveta, ki mu vladajo pritlehni pridobitniški interesi in na videz lahkoživa brezskrbnost,v resnici pa izgubljenost ter odsotnost vsakršnega smisla in namena.
Anton Pavlovich Chekhov wrote Platonov while he was still a student of medicine. The play did not have a title and was only discovered after his death; it was published as A Play Without a Title in 1923. Because of its length (the original text is around 160 pages and would run about eight hours), the play is usually performed in adapted form, often titled after the main character, Platonov. A Play Without a Title is probably most interesting as a kind of “Chekhov before Chekhov”. Whereas the more familiar Chekhov usually “abolishes” the character of the hero, or else casts “life itself” as the protagonist, with individual characters as its prisoners, Platonov has quite a few melodramatic features. One summer, Platonov, an allegedly happily married provincial schoolmaster, becomes involved (almost against his will) in several love affairs at once. His lovers include General Voynitzev’s young widow (a landowner) and her stepson’s wife. Out of a desperate sense of mischief he also flirts with other girls. All this eventually leads to a shooting. Yet the play doesn’t cast Platonov as a Don Juan. Rather, he is more of a Hamlet, unable to take a decision and thereby to liberate himself from a world ruled by common interests and seemingly frivolous carelessness, a world without meaning and purpose.
