Hungarian Director's Uncle Vanya 'heart-bruising', says NYT

English

 
?Mr. Ascher, a Hungarian director who has seldom worked in English before, has delivered what may be the most profoundly physical, and physically profound, interpretation ever of this 1897 play,? said Ben Brantley.
 
?Ascher solves the eternal Chekhov conundrum that often brings strong directors to their knees,? he added.
 
The production, which was performed in Washington last year, features Cate Blanchett, Richard Roxburgh and Hugo Weaving.
