Artistic Director of Moscow’s Meyerhold Theatre Resigns in Protest Against War | TheaterMania

Elena Kovalskaya is the former director of the Meyerhold Theatre and Cultural Center.

Elena Kovalskaya, the most recent artistic director of the Meyerhold Theatre and Cultural Center, has resigned her post in protest over Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. “It is impossible to work for a murderer and get a salary from him,” she wrote in a Facebook post.

The Meyerhold Theatre is one of several state-run theaters in Russia, many of which were inherited from the Soviet Union (although the Meyerhold was established in 1999). The state provides almost all of the funding, with artistic staff and actors as employees on payroll.

Gondwana Rainforests of Australia – Australijska kišna šuma Gondwana

Myrela

Najrasprostranjeniji među raznim tipovima kišnih šuma jeste suptorpski tip, uglavnom prisutan na plodnom tlu od bazalta i škriljca do 900 metara nadmorske visine. Razni pojasevi šumskog svoda odlikuju se brojem od deset do šezdeset vrsta šumskog drveća. Najzastupljenije vrste su Ficus i Argyrodendron, a potom Meliaceae i Elaeocarpaceae. Veoma su česte puzavice i krupni epifiti kao što su vrste Orchidaceae i paprati. Suvu kišnu šumu odlikuju tikovina (Flindersia australis), araukarija (Araucaria cunninghamii) i trakasto drvo Brachychitondiscolor, endemska vrsta u Australiji. Priobalna kišna šuma objedinjuje odlike ove dvije vrste, a prisutna je u oblastima izloženim slanim vjetrovima koji dolaze s mora. Tu se mogu naći araukarije, Podocarpaceae (Podocarpus elatus) i tukeri (Cupaniopsis anacardioides).

Najneplodnije zemljište nalazi se u vrelim kišnim šumama, kao i u onim umjereno-hladnim. Prve imaju dvostruki sloj svoda u kojem preovlađuje ograničen broj vrsta (od…

A necessidade do amor garante a nossa sobrevivência física e psíquica. Ainda que, exista a hereditariedade, sem essa condição de amar e ser amado, assim como da própria dependência do outro, nos não saberíamos identificar o que amor, carinho e acolhimento. É por isso que, toda ruptura torna-se dolorida, é por conta das renúncias. Marii […]

Those Suffering in Ukraine and Ethiopia have my greatest sympathy. ❤️❤️❤️

The Novel: UnHoly Pursuit: Devil on my Trail

War is tearing two countries apart.

They maybe in two different parts of the world, live vastly different cultures and lives, but the suffering and pain is the same.

I pray that both find peace and the senseless wars end.

Ethiopia-How it used to be.

An Unexpected Smile

From Behind the Pen

As the sun was setting yesterday, the moon showed up, bright, bold, and bad. She stole the show!

Sometimes the craziness of life leads to dehydration of the spirit. In that aridity, it’s difficult to find a reason to smile. Last night as I was closing my blinds, I saw this beauty rising majestically through the trees. It was a special moment that brought on an unexpected smile. Whether it’s a spring bud, the silliness of a pet, a child’s laughter, a smooth ride on your way somewhere, or just for being alive, find a reason to smile today. 😊 Even if you’re smiling and the world is not smiling with you, smile anyway. It is definitely a mood-changer!
