Jurijs Djakonovs (1986)
This summer Jurijs Djakonovs has graduated the Latvian Academy of Culture where he was studying theatre directing. Until now he is better known as an actor in several performances staged by the younger generation of theatre makers at Dirty Deal Teatro: “Still Life” (2009) and “Confession” (2010) by Elmārs Seņkovs, and “Mitya’s Love” (2010) and "Boys Smell Like Oranges" by Vladislavs Nastavševs. For his acting Jurijs Djakonovs was nominated for “The Debut of the Year” in Latvian theatre in 2010. His first staging „La Nuit MêmePasPeur” by Claudine Galea was included in the Latvian Theatre Showcase 2011 and well received by international guests. In June 2011 the ambitious project "Heda" (based on Ibsen's "Heda Gabler") was premiered in the abandoned warehouse in Andrejsala directed by Jurijs Djakonovs and Elmārs Seņkovs. For "Genesis XP" Jurijs continues to collaborate with young scenographer Rūdolfs Baltiņš, with whom he has developed his previous performances.
