Description

1926--Russian--Meyerhold's production of Gogol's The Government Inspector (also known as The Inspector General)--Episode 5--note that this is far less constructivist than Meyerhold's previous productions--perhaps due to the rising influence of Stalin (Meyerhold was eventually arrested and executed--Stalin hated anti-naturalist theatre).
