Vsevolod Meyerhold’s zodiac sign is Aquarius. According to astrologers, the presence of Aries always marks the beginning of something energetic and turbulent. They are continuously looking for dynamic, speed and competition, always being the first in everything - from work to social gatherings. Thanks to its ruling planet Mars and the fact it belongs to the element of Fire (just like Leo and Sagittarius), Aries is one of the most active zodiac signs. It is in their nature to take action, sometimes before they think about it well.
Vsevolod Meyerhold was born in the Year of the Dog. Those born under the Chinese Zodiac sign of the Dog are loyal, faithful, honest, distrustful, often guilty of telling white lies, temperamental, prone to mood swings, dogmatic, and sensitive. Dogs excel in business but have trouble finding mates. Compatible with Tiger or Horse.
An important figure in the history of modern theatre, Meyerhold aligned himself with the Symbolist movement in drama and founded the Meyerhold Theatre, which staged innovative productions of works by Nikolai Gogol, Vladimir Mayakovsky, and Nikolai Erdman. Later in his career, Meyerhold headed the Stanislavsky and Nemirovich-Danchenko Music Theatre.
After abandoning his studies of both law and violin performance, he studied under Vladimir Nemirovich-Danchenkoat at the Moscow Philharmonic Dramatic School and went on to perform in nearly two dozen productions at the famous Moscow Art Theatre.
Tragically, he was executed by Joseph Stalin's government, which viewed his avant-garde theatrical work as a threat to the political regime. Shortly before Meyerhold was put to death, his second wife was also murdered, presumably by the Soviet NKVD (People's Commissariat for Internal Affairs).
A native of Penza, Russia, he was the youngest of eight children born to Emil Fyodorovich Meyerhold and Alvina Danilovna. His first marriage, to Olga Munt, produced three daughters; he later began an affair with, and eventually married, acclaimed stage Actress Zinaida Reich.
He and his contemporary and fellow theatre Artist, Constantin Stanislavski, both devised acting methodologies that encouraged performers to connect emotion and physicality.
