Description Concert In One Act - One of Checkov's earliest plays. At the command of his wife, an old man – with a bad habit of his own – agrees to give a lecture on the hazards of smoking. Instead he unleashes a bitter aria of grievances about his own crushed dreams – and complaints about his invisible wife.
