Where's Masha?

Since I am making it my job to try to expose the inadequacies of the epidemic of new "versions" of Chekhov's plays, I thought I would try to demonstrate exactly why Chekhov is the greatest of dramatists who only a fool would interfere with.

SEXUAL HARASSMENT AT THE BBC

I was recently a guest on a television programme which had sexual harassment as its theme. Afterwards I wrote what I intended to be a blog and then decided not to publish.
