Excerpt from The Moscow Art Theatre Series of Russian Plays, Vol. 5: Direction of Morris Gest Art Theatre under the spur of the acclaim The Sea Gull had achieved. Tchekhofi, however, had re turned to Moscow in the spring of 1899 from his en forced winter exile in the Crimea too late to see The Sea Gull in performance. A close friendship sprang up between him and his interpreting artists, but he felt in duty bound to leave the new manuscript with the rival theatre. A solution of the dilemma soon ap peared when the committee of the Small Imperial Theatre demanded certain changes in the third act. Tchekhoff refused to make any revisions, and the out come of the impasse was that the Art Theatre snatched the manuscript as it stood, accepted it without question and hurried the play into rehearsal. On the night of November 7 (our calendar), I899, therefore, Uncle Vanya as we know it today, was publicly performed for the first time on the stage with which Tchekhoff's fame as a playwright was so inextricably interwoven.
