At the tender age of fifteen Anton's father runs away from their hometown because he is bankrupt. Shortly after Anton and the rest of his family is kicked out of there home. Four years later they all come together again in Moscow. .
             When Anton got older he started a career as a comical writer for small magazine companies. His pseudonym was Antosha Chekhonte. Antosha was what his parents used to call him when he was a young boy. In 1884 Anton decided that he wanted to go into the medical field so he enrolled himself into a university. Since his family did not have a lot of money to send him to school he needed a way to pay his way through college. Anton decided that he would continue writing on the side to pay for his tuition.
             He continued writing after he graduated from the university and in 1887 he had finished writing his first play called Ivannov which was about a man very much like himself that committed suicide. In 1888 his second play called The Wood Demon was produced but wasn't very good and as a result didn't last more then three performances. These first plays that he wrote were not very successful at all. The Seagulls was produced in 1896 by the newly opened Moscow Art Theater and was not successful having survived only five performances. Anton promised himself that he would never write for another theatre again. .
             In 1898 The Seagull is produced again this time more successfully produced for the second time by the Moscow Art Theater. This was his first big success as a playwright In 1899 Chekhov revised The Wood Demon, which was now called Uncle Vanya and gave it to the Moscow Art Theatre. This play was highly successful and eventually became known as a masterpiece of the modern theater. However Chekhov was unhappy in the way that the director made his plays look.
