TAIROV ALEXANDER: (1885-1950) Ukranian theatre Director. Tairov was a leading innovator during the Soviet era. Tairov used the music of Beethoven and Chopin as a way of helping his actors achieve a special state of mind during their performances. Tairov created a prototype of his Chamber Theatre, working with every detail of theatrical performance in order to break away from the traditional theatre. In 1946, under Stalin, Tairov's Chamber Theatre was attacked for having little to do with contemporary Soviet life. in 1949 the Soviet Committee for Arts issued an official order to closed Tairov´s theatre, accused of Aesthetism and Formalism. Rare signed 3.5 x 2.5 card ` A. Tairoff´, dated in Vienna 1925 in his hand. The card has been affixed to a larger black card. VG
