Shota Rustaveli Theatre and Georgia State Film University (TAFU) is one of the oldest universities in the Caucasus and Georgia. The Theatre and Film University is dedicated solely to the visual and performing arts. The main founder of the University was a well-known Georgian theatre actor and director, Lado Meskhishvili ==History== The first attempt to create a drama school in Georgia related to School Dramas in the Seminaries of Telavi (1782) and Tbilisi (1855), where by bylaw it was possible to play “a comedy or any other conspicuous play once a week.” In the 1880 the Statute of the Dramatic Society provided for it to “hold theatre classes and temporary courses in order to prepare and train artists." In 1912 Lado Meskhishvili attempted to establish drama courses, and set up regulations. In 1918 Giorgi Jabadari founded a studio, and brought to it internationally acclaimed actors such as V. Anjaparidze, U. Chkheidze, A. Vasadze and Sh. Ghambashidze. In 1922 under the leadership of A. Pagava a Drama Studio was established, which according to the Resolution of the Council of People's Commissars dated October 10, 1922 (Protocol N 31) became the basis of the "Institute of Performing Arts." Studio participants were enrolled to the second year. Also an additional enlistment for courses was announced. The first rector of the Institute was Akaki Paghava, the artistic Director was Kote Marjanishvili, and the teachers were prominent scientists: I. Javakhishvili, D. Uznadze, G. Chubinashvili, A. Shanidze, G. Akhvlediani, A. Natishvili. The theatre Directors were A. Akhmeteli, M. Koreli, and the writers K. Gamsakhurdia, G. Robakidze, N. Shiukashvili. In 1924 the first 21 graduated from the Institute. Among the graduates were: A. Khorava, V. Godziashvili, S. Takaishvili, T. Tsulukidze, M. Mrevlishvili, P. Kobakhidze, P. Kandelaki, P. Murghulia, G.Kuprashvili, N. Shengelaia, S.Chelidze etc. In 1927, the Institute ceased to function. New studios were formed at the studio of the Rustaveli Theatre in 1927-1935, which together with Sandro Akhmeteli was led by Akaki Vasadze, and later in 1935-1939 by Akaki Khorava. The training Program of the Studio and the level of graduate specialists is equivalent to other modern colleges. The Studio has trained actors for the theatres of Batumi, Abkhazia, Ossetia, Checheno-Ingushetia. The Rustaveli Theatre Studio trained 152 actors between 1927 and 1939. A Studio was also established also in the Marjanishvili theatre, where D. Janelidze was working. In 1933 A. Paghava established “Higher Courses of Performing Arts”. Film Actor’s Courses were founded at the ‘State Film Industry’. On September 1, 1939, by resolution of the Government in the Akaki Khorava and Akaki Pagava initiative, the Theatre Institute was reestablished on the basis of the Rustaveli Theatre and other Studios. The rector was A. Khorava, and the deputy rector A. Paghava. After A. Khorava the rectors were: D. Aleksidze, M. Kveselava, L. Kiknadze, I. Tavadze, E. Gugushvili, G. Zhordania, G. Lortkipanidze, G. Margvelashvili, N. Chkhaidze, G. Margvelashvili. In 1992 the Theatre Institute was renamed the State Theatre and Film Institute.
