On the Moscow Fringe
To the outward eye, big is beautiful in Moscow: colossal statues and banners, vast new hotels, the 6,000-seater Kremlin Palace of Congresses. But in the theatre, the smaller scale, more intimate experience has gained in popularity in recent years. Most major theatres have a lesser auditorium attached; the Moscow
Chamber Musical Theatre presents operas in a converted cinema; and down in the south-west suburbs actors perform in a tower-block basement to a packed audience. John Elsom reports on the 'Fringe' and visits the Taganka Theatre, the Ministry of Culture and GITIS, the State's main theatre school. Producer RICHARD BANNERMAN
