Study Guide for The Cherry Orchard

For this production we are trying something new! You'll still see some dramaturgical information in your printed program, including the dramaturg's note, "The Weight of Waiting in The Cherry Orchard."

But for this production, instead of a printed study guide within the playbill, we have designed a mobile-friendly study guide. From this site you can learn more about Chekhov and late 19th century Russia, as well as behind-the-scenes information from the creators and designers of this BYU production.

Crazy for You has two main settings: the bustle and shine of upper class New York City, and the dusty, dwindling mining town of Deadrock, Nevada. Just an hour south of Provo lies Mammoth, Utah, a ghost town that directly parallels Deadrock. So we loaded the cast into vans and went on a field trip!
