About this listen

 Step into the world of Anton Chekhovs The Proposal, a lively one-act comic farce set in Russia, where marriage is often seen as a ticket to financial security rather than a union of love. This witty play cleverly satirizes the institution of marriage by highlighting its materialistic motivations. Join us for a delightful exploration of relationships, wealth, and the human condition, brought to life by a talented cast. (Summary with reference to Wikipedia)
