German translation by Ulrike Zemme
​With a monologue by Katja Brunner

A Russian society in economic decline, unable to free itself from the toxic ghosts of its overpowering forefathers, entirely shaped by militarism and dreaming of lost greatness. In his early work written by the Azov Sea, which became known by the title of Platonov, Anton Chekhov celebrates a farewell to a dying world. Anna Petrovna, who moves in the best social circles, unexpectedly finds herself on the brink of financial ruin. People gather at her country estate on the evening before it is auctioned off and play like there is still something to be won. And no one sees the approaching catastrophes.
