From Wikipedia: "Boris Alexandrovich Pokrovsky (23 January 1912 5 June 2009) was a Russian opera director, best known as the stage director of the Bolshoi Theatre between 1943 and 1982. Pokrovsky was born in Moscow, Russian Empire in 1912. His first production was a staging of Georges Bizet's Carmen in Novosibirsk. He was then appointed director of the State Opera in Minsk (now in Belarus). He served as the artistic director of the Bolshoi in 1952-1963 and 1973-1982 and was named a People's Artist of the USSR in 1961. His production of Vano Muradeli's opera The Great Friendship was the target of the second Zhdanov Ukase (1948), and it was he who first staged Sergei Prokofiev's War and Peace, in 1946. He took this opera to Italy for its first full staging there, in 1964. In 1965 in Moscow he directed the first Russian-language production of Benjamin Britten's A Midsummer Night's Dream. In 1972 Pokrovsky founded the Moscow Chamber Opera Theater with Gennady Rozhdestvensky, and he produced operas such as Igor Stravinsky's The Rake's Progress, Alfred Schnittke's Life with an Idiot, and in 1974 the first Soviet production of Dmitri Shostakovich's The Nose since 1929. In 1975 he took the Bolshoi Theatre on its first American tour. Pokrovsky's many awards include four Stalin Prizes (1947, 1948, 1949, 1950), a Lenin Prize (1980), two Orders of Lenin (1967, 1976), Order For Merit to the Fatherland of 3rd (1997), 2nd (2002) and 1st (2007) degree, as well as two State Prizes (1995, 2004). He was the father of actress Alla Pokrovskaya, father-in-law of Oleg Yefremov, and the grandfather of actor Mikhail Yefremov. His second wife was the soprano Irina Maslennikova. Boris Pokrovsky died in Moscow in 2009." Also from WIkipedia: "Yury Nikolayevich Grigorovich (born January 2, 1927 in Leningrad) is a Soviet and Russian dancer and choreographer who dominated the Russian ballet for 30 years. Grigorovich was born into a family connected with the Imperial Russian Ballet. He graduated from the Leningrad Choreographic School in 1946 and danced as a soloist of the Kirov Ballet until 1962. His staging of Sergey Prokofiev's The Stone Flower (1957) and of The Legend of Love (1961) brought him acclaim as a choreographer. In 1964 he moved to the Bolshoi Theatre, where he would work as an artistic director until 1995. His most famous productions at the Bolshoi were The Nutcracker (1966), Spartacus (1967), and Ivan the Terrible (1975). He controversially reworked Swan Lake to produce a happy end for the story in 1984. In 1995, he was accused of having allowed the theatre to plunge into stagnation and after many a squabble was ousted from office. Thereupon he choreographed for various Russian companies before settling in Krasnodar, where he set up his own company. Grigorovich has been heading the juries of numerous international competitions in classical ballet. After the death of his wife, the great ballerina Natalia Bessmertnova, on February 19, 2008, he has been offered the opportunity to return to the Bolshoi again in the capacity of ballet master and choreographer.".…
