Chekhov and MAT

[Lauren Leighton]

I'd be pleased if super-Chekhovians could explain one condition and answer
one question.
1) Condition: How and why did Nikolai M. Gorchakov manage to write an entire
book about Stanislavsky (Stanislavski Directs, NY, 1954) without once
mentioning Chekhov? Perhaps I missed something? I didn't read the book, but
I searched it rather carefully without finding Chekhov.
2) Was MAT ever called "The Sea Gull Theatre"?
Thank you. Lauren Leighton laurengl at ptwi.net
