The end of the play was unexpected and dull. I expect anagnorisis and catharsis to be much more defined. It might be that I am not trained at recognizing the use of these techniques but I could barely make them out. The whole play started to build the viewers expectations but never climaxed. It grew gradually and suddenly stopped. Maybe it is a way to go even further into the monotony of life. At the end of the day nothing interesting really happens. It has, in a way, reminded me of the Twilight zone. The little I know about this different dimension is what I have been exposed to through Disney movies. Apart from Pishchik's new found riches, and a few other dull events nothing much happens. It might be my lack of understanding that leads me to believe that the end of The Cherry Orchard could have been better.
