The formation of Petru Vutcărău’s aesthetic concepts began in the period of his studies at “B. Shchukin” High School of Theatre, where he explores the basics of acting, the art of translating into characters from classical and contemporary dramaturgy of different genres. At the same time, the atmosphere that stirred his interest in the theatre of the absurd in Moscow in the mid-1980s transformed the aesthetic conception of the beginner actor Petru Vutcărău. Performances of the theatre of the absurd: “Waiting for Godot” by S. Beckett, “The Bald Soprano” by E. Ionesco, “Exit the King” by E. Ionesco, „Voices in the blinding light”, “And with the cello what do we do?” by M. Visniec were staged at E. Ionesco Theatre. Performances were staged in which the means of expression of the theatre of the absurd were used only as special procedures – „Joseph and his mistress” after the play by Val Butnaru, „Chiriţa in the province” by V. Alecsandri, “The Inspector” by N. Gogol, “The Wolves and the Sheep” by A. Ostrovski, “Elizabeth I” by P. Foster. The play “The Dream of a Summer Night” by W. Shakespeare was staged in the aesthetics of the philosophical fantasy, and “The Chekhov Machine” by M. Visniec in the aesthetics of the symbolic theatre and the colourful music of A. Appia. “The Women of Picasso. Olga” by B. McAvera, “Oscar and the Lady in Pink” by E. Schmitt, “A Very Simple Story” by M. Lado were among the plays performed in the aesthetics of psychological realism.
