Mikhail Filippovich Shatrov (1932–2010) was a Soviet playwright.[1][2] In 1958 he was admitted to the Union of Soviet Writers. Member of the CPSU since 1961. In a series of historical plays, he shook up the genre of Leniniana. (Faina Ranevskaya sarcastically remarked: "Shatrov - this is the Krupskaya of our days".[3])
His plays are often based on historical events. "The Bolsheviks" is based on the true story of Fanny Kaplan's attempt to assassinate Vladimir Lenin.[4] The play "The Peace Treaty of Brest-Litovsk" was initially banned by the regime in the USSR due to its depiction of Lenin and was approved for publication only in 1987, 25 years after it was written.[5] In 1988 an all-Russian cast toured Europe performing "The Peace Treaty of Brest-Litovsk"; in 1990 the company toured in the US as well.[6]
Mikhail Shatrov died in Moscow at the 79th year of his life from a heart attack in his apartment in the House on the Embankment. He was buried at the Troyekurovskoye Cemetery.
