Backstage compromise

Premiere «demon» in opera will take place, but late
Alexei Stepaniuk, the scandalous days of leave Opera House, will return to Chelyabinsk and finalize the opera Anton Rubinstein «Demon». This was announced yesterday by Minister of Culture Vladimir Makarov.
True, premiere opera, previously appointed by 3 October, postponed until November. But the concert version promised hudrukom opera Dennis Severinovym, also did not take place. Vladimir Makarov believed that staging «Demona», which will be a great event in the theatrical life of Russia, must be full.
The conflict Alexei Stepanyuka and Denis Severinova reported yesterday ( «Exile« Demona »). Pitersky director, invited to work in Chelyabinsk, a row with hudrukom because of the candidacy baletmeystera. Dennis Severino appointed to the post of Constantine the Urals. Skirmish over the fact that Alexei Stepaniuk went to St. Petersburg. On the road to the airport, he still managed to call the Minister of Culture Vladimir Makarov, to tell - «in Chelyabinsk or more leg». According to the version minister, the conflict arose from the fact that the director ill, and therefore work has been delayed. And Makarov said hudruka can understand, which passed the nerves. Still, authorities decided to return the director, has done so much for opera. Stepaniuk brought theater stage most prestigious prize - «The Golden Mask». Initially, the director encouraged Vladimir Makarov, and yesterday he telephoned Acting Governor Andrei Kosilov. Alexei Stepaniuk did not break and said that he could return, but not now, and after the St. Petersburg will be a premiere of another of his performances. Chelyabinsk actors like him, and the director is ready to work with them and more. Incidentally, the choreographer for «Demona» will decide himself Alexei Stepaniuk. Meanwhile, conflicts in opera zavidnoy repeated with regularity.
- Akterskaya character is very thin. Dennis Severino, unfortunately, has not yet learned to find with all the common language - said Vladimir Makarov. - I once told him that he needed to learn to work with people.
Incidentally, the opera artists have expressed frustration not only in creative matters. In February last year, the Governor has promised to build a new theater collective residential building and commissioned their zamam find land. But the issue pending in the opera began mass dismissals. (This was written 25 Sept, 2007 in the material «Baletny outcome».) At the June meeting, the government governor dramatically spoke to those who do not comply with instructions on building homes for the opera house. Vyvolochka proved effective. August 25, in the municipality of Chelyabinsk signed a decree on the allocation of land for future dvuhsotkvartirny house. Perhaps that is already in May to the end of the theater season, actors right long-awaited new apartments.
Vladimir Makarov lamented that, as difficult to find tolkovogo hudruka. Academic Drama Theater, for example, still has no head. However, already held talks with well-known Moscow director, professor of the School of studio MHAT Vladimir Petrov. Capital professor come to Chelyabinsk in May next year to see the troupe, and perhaps the invitation Yuzhnouralsk authorities.
