The Experimental Theatre Director Fled The USSR But Returned In Triumph To Russia

Yuri Lyubimov has died at 97 after an intensely dramatic life. “The Taganka Theater in Moscow, which Mr. Lyubimov founded in 1964, was known for breaking rules. Its flashy, fast-moving productions included song, dance, poetry and provocation. Actors spoke directly to the audience, sometimes even when the script didn’t call for it.”
