Sergei Radlov started as one of the left-wing directors among the
disciples and companions-in-arms of Vsevolod Meyerhold in
post-revolutionary years. With Radlov, both the Academic Drama
Theatre and the Opera and Ballet House were reinvigorated. In the
former he directed Jack London, Ernst Toller, Evgeni Zamyatin, and
updated Aristophanes. In the latter he did "modern" operas, such as
"The Love for Three Oranges" by Sergei Prokofiev, "Der ferne Klang"
by Franz Schrecker, "Woyzeck" by Alban Berg, "Der Rosenkavalier" by
Richard Strauss, and Mussorgsky's "Boris Godunov" in its authorized
