The present paper examines the relationship between individual memories and theatre historiography. Modern theatre historiography generally tends to be based on empirical and scientific approaches and so tends to eliminate individual memories. But the personal memoirs may enrich theatre historiography. It would be worth investigation. The memoir of Bogdanova-Orlova, who played the title role in Nora (A Doll's House), directed by V. E. Meyerhold in Novorossisk in 1920, would be a good example of this issue. It sheds new light on this production, which has long been forgotten in the history about Meyerhold's theatrical activities.
