Vakhtangov - Vakhtangov (English notation)

Japanese: ワフタンゴフ - わふたんごふ(英語表記)Евгений Багратионович Вахтангов/Evgeniy Bagrationovich Vahtangov
Vakhtangov - Vakhtangov (English notation)

Russian director. Born to the owner of a tobacco factory in Vladikavkaz. He joined amateur theater troupes as a teenager, dropped out of Moscow University, and attended the Adashev School of Dramatic Arts, where actors from the Moscow Art Theatre taught, before joining the Moscow Art Theatre in 1911. As a follower of Stanislavski, he worked as an actor and director at the Moscow Art Theatre's First Studio from 1912, and founded the Student Studio in 1913 (which was renamed the Moscow Art Theatre's Third Studio in 1921 and the Vakhtangov Theatre in 1926). Resonating with Romain Rolland's theory of popular theater, he sought theater suited to the new era, and boldly pursued new forms, placing emphasis on the creative individuality of actors and ensembles. His most famous production is Gozzi's Princess Turandot (1922).

ロシアの演出家。ウラジカフカスのたばこ工場主の家に生まれる。青少年時代から素人(しろうと)劇団に加わり、モスクワ大学を中退、モスクワ芸術座の俳優たちが教えていたアダーシェフ演劇学校を経て、1911年にモスクワ芸術座に入った。スタニスラフスキーの信奉者の一人として、12年から芸術座付属第一スタジオで俳優・演出家として活躍するかたわら、13年に学生スタジオ(21年に芸術座第三スタジオ、26年にワフタンゴフ劇場と改称)を創立した。ロマン・ロランの民衆演劇論に共鳴し、新しい時代にふさわしい演劇を模索し、俳優の創造的個性とアンサンブルを重視して大胆に新形式を追求した。代表的演出はゴッツィの『トゥランドット姫』(1922)。
