Abstract
This is a study of the effects on the Soviet theatre of the political “Thaw” following Stalin’s death in 1953. It concentrates on a number of case studies to show how previously repressed artistic movements were revived and how a new freedom of expression, both in staging and playwriting, navigated through censorship and inconsistent state policy.
