A completely improvised play in the style of Anton Chekhov. Impro Theatre now brings its particular brand of comic genius to the special world of Anton Chekhov. The beautiful, damaged, poetic, joyous, petty, coarse and yearning characters of Chekhov's plays serve as inspiration, along with audience suggestions, to spur the Impro Theatre ensemble into the instant creation of an all new, never before seen Chekhovian play… right before your eyes.

"...The show's amazingly deft sound and lighting improvisers, an intrepid crew of four that also varies nightly, create spur-of-the-moment effects that are crucial to the fun."

"...These touches and an amazing moment when a song, made up on the spot and completed by two actors simultaneously, made for both laughter and respect for the actors' quick wits and solid understanding of the stereotypes they embody."

"...The most authentic and thoughtful staging of Anton Chekhov I've experienced in America didn't use any Chekhov script you've read or seen performed or ever will see. This Impro Theatre one-night-only production of Serfs in the Field was improvised over two acts' relaxed mastery, nimbly directed, sublimely performed, and – I want to emphasize – written all in real time, in front of a live audience."
