Journal overview

Stanislavski Studies is a peer-reviewed journal with an international scope. It focuses not only on Stanislavski’s work as actor, director and teacher but more broadly on his influence and legacy which can be seen in the work of many of the twentieth-century’s most influential theatre-makers: these will include Lee Strasberg, Sanford Meisner, Michael Chekhov, Stella Adler, Vakhtangov, Komissarjevsky, Meyerhold and the many others who were directly influenced by Stanislavski’s theories and practice.

Intended to be accessible to both the academic reader and the practitioner, Stanislavski Studies collects together some of the best contemporary, international scholarship, translations of original articles written in Russian, and information about major research resources. As a forum for the analysis and discussion of the history, legacy and application of Stanislavski’s theories it will publish articles that investigate, take issue with, and consider the applications of his theories to contemporary theatre. The journal will contain reviews of essential new publications in the field, interviews and profiles, occasional play texts and discussion papers.

The journal will be of interest to academics and professional practitioners and teachers interested in acting, directing, international theatre research, scenography, dramaturgy, voice and movement, Russian, non-Western and popular theatre forms.
