Set designers play an integral part in the theatre, serving as full-fledged co-authors of the director. They are responsible for creating a world of objects on stage. These inanimate things however, often represent much more than what one initially might think, presenting the audience with a metaphor that helps to explain the essence of the production and the story’s main idea. Eduard Kochergin is one of the most acclaimed and gifted stage and set designers in Russia. He has worked in numerous theatres all over the country and world and has spent the past four decades as the head of stage design at The Bolshoi Drama Theatre in St. Petersburg. His name is synonymous with excellence in his craft, and over the past ten years he has dedicated himself to yet another art form, writing, gaining fame in this as well. Kochergin’s works help us to better understand him as an artist, the philosophy behind his work and serve as a means of historical memory.
