Actor Dmitry Korepin plans to file a complaint with the prosecutor's office after a new dismissal from the Gorky Moscow Art Theater. According to the artist, he was cut for speaking about the theater in an interview with the Daily Storm and "Interlocutor". According to Dmitry, he will fight to the end against the tyranny of the leadership of the theater and will reach the presidential administration. Earlier Korepin was reinstated in the Moscow Art Theater after being laid off. Then he condemned the resignation of the artistic director Tatyana Doronina and the appointment of Eduard Boyakov to her post. During the rehearsal today, the lawyer handed him a new order of dismissal.
“During the rehearsal, eight people came with a camera: a cameraman, a lawyer, women from the personnel department, and they gave me a reprimand. I was indignant that they were filming me, and I said: "Well, then let's put handcuffs on me too!" I signed, and the lawyer immediately gives the second order. Dismissal order! " - Dmitry Korepin said in an interview with the Daily Storm.
As noted by the actor, he is going to apply to the Ministry of Culture and the Prosecutor's Office to receive protection and support in connection with the persecution by the leadership of the theater.
“I would like to contact the Ministry of Culture and meet with Olga Lyubimova, because we are being bullied. First, to Tatyana Vasilievna, and now to me”, - said the artist.
“And, of course, I want to apply to the prosecutor’s office. Because this is really psychological and moral bullying. Everyone already understands this. It’s not normal when I go to the theater and I’m immediately fired, although the court clearly said to reinstate,” - added Korepin.
According to the actor, he will continue to fight.
“The most important thing is that I will stand to the end. To death - as our Soviet soldiers stood during the Great Patriotic War, defending their Motherland! They seem to be hoping that I'll get tired, but no. I went through an orphanage, and the orphanages - they look at the world differently, they have a different temper. They cannot be broken. I've been through a lot. And I will continue to fight. For me this is essential! - summed up Dmitry Korepin.
The first reduction of Dmitry Korepin took place at the end of March 2020. According to the actor, he was fired because he did not support the resignation of Tatyana Doronina and sharply criticized the current leader Eduard Boyakov, forcing people to switch to fixed-term contracts. Later, Korepin filed a complaint with the prosecutor's office about the illegal dismissal, which happened despite the statement of Vladimir Putin that during a pandemic no one should be left without work.
The artist also filed three lawsuits at the Gorky Moscow Art Theater. In October, the Presnensky District Court found Korepin's layoff illegal, reinstated him in all rights and paid compensation in the amount of 380 thousand rubles for the time while he was not working.
