Hardback. Etat : Very Good. First UK Edition. 1952. First UK edition. 292pp., [i], a colour portrait as a frontispiece, 6 black and white plates from photographs of the production, and many sketches within the text. The Moscow Art Theatre production of The Seagull in 1898, directed by Konstantin Stanislavski and Vladimir Nemirovich-Danchenko, was a crucial milestone for the fledgling theatre company that has been described as "one of the greatest events in the history of Russian theatre and one of the greatest new developments in the history of world drama." It was the first production in Moscow of Anton Chekhov's 1896 play The Seagull, though it had been performed with only moderate success in St. Petersburg two years earlier. Stanislavski's directorial score was first published in 1938, and the present edition has been edited with a substantial introduction by Professor S.D Balukhaty and translated from the Russian by David Magarshack. There is a short postscript by Herbert Marshall. The book is bound in the original orange cloth covered boards with gold titling on the spine and a blind-stamped emblem near the bottom corner of the rear board. The case of the book is in very good condition with shelf wear to the boards, some patchy damp fading near the bottom half of the fore edge of the front board, and more noticeable damp marking and fading along the top edge and down the spine edge of the rear board. The spine is faded with some water splashes and wear to the titling and the spine ends are bumped with some fraying and a little damage and loss to the cloth at the spine ends. The contents are tight and clean with no inscription.
