In this famous one act comedy, the sorrowful and lonely widow Mrs. Popov meets the aggressive and angry Smirnov, who shows up at her house to demand money owed by her late husband. Despite this unlikely beginning, the two manage somehow to fall in love.

Written in 1888, The Bear is one of Anton Chekhov's greatest works. The play is alternately titled The Boor.
