Meyerhold, The Magnanimous Cuckold

In 1922, The Magnanimous Cuckold, directed by Vsevolod Meyerhold with a stage design by Lyubov Popova, was a true manifesto. In Moscow, then the epicentre of the Soviet Revolution, Meyerhold’s production of The Magnanimous Cuckold unveiled a new Constructivist and biomechanical theatre, entirely based on movement and a mastery of the stage space and time.
