Театр на Таганке, раскол 1992-го года

Actors aren't allowed into the theater... Amateur footage of a conflict during which Yuri Lyubimov isolated himself, locked himself away with his liberal, anti-Soviet troupe, and was rude to the deputies of the Moscow City Council (which, as the local authority, was competent to decide the fate of the divisive theater). There's a lengthy commentary by Sergei Ivanovich Osetrov of the Moscow City Council Commission on Law and Order, as well as commentary by Nikolai Gubenko and Leonid Filatov. From this conflict, against the backdrop of liberalism in action—the boorish, brazen dictatorship of Lyubimov, who privatized the theater—a second theater was born, the Commonwealth of Actors of the Taganka Theater, headed by Nikolai Gubenko.
