For Monday, Dec. 9, 2013 -- "The Brute" (= "The Bear" = "The Boor"), by Anton Chekhov (1893)

Read Chekhov's one-act play "The Brute" online:  Full text of the Play (here, it's called "The Bear," but it's virtually the same as "The Brute").

WAIT~  You'd prefer to hear it read aloud?  Audio rendition of the play.

Filmed versions of plays are notoriously bad -- something about film or video can suck the life out of a good play!!  Still, a YouTube rendition might help you get familiar with the play (here, it's translated as "The Boor"), especially if you see a performance for a live audience:  The Boor, by Anton Chekhov.
(This comes from a high school one-act play contest.)
