Quoting Nicole Monnier <monniern at MISSOURI.EDU>:

> Dear SEELANGTSY,
> 
> I'm teaching a course on Russian drama and would love to be able to show my
> students (or make available to them) as many productions of them as
> possible. However, beyond "Vanya on 42nd St." (!) my university is
> apparently woefully lacking in both videorecordings of stage performances
> and film adaptations.
> 
> I would be most grateful for both recommendations of specific performances
> AND sources (i.e., where I can buy, rent, beg or steal them). The preference
> is, of course, for English (alas, it is primarily an undergraduate course),
> but subtitled and/or straight up Russian versions would be welcome as well.
> 
> And oh, the course contains the usual suspects: Fonvizin, Griboedov,
> Pushkin, Gogol, Ostrovsky, and Chekhov (with some Blok, Mayakovsky, and
> Kharms thrown in at the end).
> 
> Grad students taking the course will also be reading Lermontov,
> Sukhovo-Kobylin, Turgenev,  Tolstoy, Gorky, Bulgakov.
> 
> Dramatically,
>
