Love Me. The Diagnosis
play
This play in not about portraying the relationship between Anton Chekhov and his wife Olga Knipper. Instead, the real story of their relationship became the starting point for a theatrical fantasy about the nature of love. “Love Me. The Diagnosis” attempts to study the mechanism behind “infecting” a person with love and the process of healing after being hurt. The play explores such human actions as love, care, betrayal, and forgiveness.
