Lithuanians tear communication

They want to fire Tuminas from the Vilnius Theater, Karbauskis voluntarily leaves Moscow

I can’t quote the source - it is not suitable for public use. But briefly, without Turkic phraseological units: the director of the Vakhtangov Theater Kirill Krok denied the information that Rimas Tuminas, the art leader of the Vakhtangovites, leaves his post at the request of the Lithuanian authorities, whose citizen is.

Tuminas himself, a rare case, also picked up the phone and, having heard that he, it turns out, was not on the Arbat, but in Lithuania, chuckling, assured: busy, very busy in the theater, guests in the evening at the play, a lot of work. "And the update is needed - spring on the threshold."

“We have just changed the charter,” said Rimas Vladimirovich, “created the artistic council of leading artists so that they were responsible if I am in absence.”

Well, a certain circle is completed. And this happened long before the tragic events of the last days. A person who concludes contracts and solves not only economic, but personnel issues, Last year, Cyril Krok became. But the type and essence of the existence of the Vakhtangov Theater as an art institution does not change this. Tuminas in Moscow rehearses.

But in Lithuania as the main director of the Vilnius Maly Theater, which he himself created, they do not want to see him anymore. The Minister of Culture of the Republic today demanded his dismissal.

Until now, Tuminas combined the leadership of two theaters, lived in two states. Now he is invited to choose:

Or “let the director himself put a letter of resignation on the table,” the minister said.

Another famous Lithuanian director, who has long and fruitfully working in Moscow, Mindaugas Karbauskis voluntarily leaves his post - the artistic director of the theater. “I'm leaving,” he wrote to the FB, and confirmed the “new” that it was about the Mayakovsky Theater.

Russian classics are what both Lithuanian directors have long and fruitfully engaged in the Russian stage for a long time.
