Book Synopsis Constantin Stanislavski by : Charlotte Jane Ellerby
Download or read book Constantin Stanislavski written by Charlotte Jane Ellerby and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Constantin Stanislavski initially trained as an opera singer before becoming an actor and director. In 1918 he was invited to give a series of lectures and workshops on the art of acting in opera at the Moscow Bolshoy Theatre, and then he directed a whole series of operas between 1922 and 1932. The opera lectures are found in a book entitled On the Art of the Stage, and one of the singers in Stanislavski's Opera Studio named Pavel Rumyantsev records Stanislavski's work on individual operas in a book entitled Stanislavski on Opera. This thesis argues that these lectures are a major contribution to our understanding of Stanislavski's training of the actor: they were given before the maj or acting texts were written or published, and they constitute a complete system called 'The System and Methods of Creative Art', formed in seven steps of a metaphorical ladder. The lectures have received little or no critical attention and this thesis is therefore unique in the light that it sheds upon the relationship between Stanislavski's systems of acting for opera and for theatre, and the historical and cultural contexts in which the lectures were given. This thesis also challenges the conventional view of Stanislavski as a naturalistic director and posits a binary model which acknowledges his work in fantasy and illusion, both in theatre and opera. Tzvetan Todorov provides a critical language with which to analyse Stanislavski' s approach to operas in the fantastic vein such as Rimsky-Korsakov's A May Night. By contrast, Stanislavski's direction of Tchaikovsky's Eugene Onegin in 1922 employed a variety of more realist styles. Finally, this thesis examines Stanislavski's contribution to the movement to create a 'synthetic theatre', at the heart of which is a collective ethos and a desire to unite the words, music and action in an organic whole.
Book Synopsis Stanislavsky and Yoga by : Sergei Tcherkasski
Download or read book Stanislavsky and Yoga written by Sergei Tcherkasski and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-07-15 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with one of the most important sources of the Stanislavsky System - Yoga, its practice and philosophy. Sergei Tcherkasski carefully collects records on Yoga in Stanislavsky's writings from different periods and discusses hidden references which are not explained by Stanislavsky himself due to the censorship in his day. Vivid examples of Yoga based training from the rehearsal practice of the Moscow Art Theatre and many of Stanislavsky's studios (the First Studio in 1910s, the Second Studio and Opera Studio of the Bolshoi Theatre in 1920s, Opera-Dramatic Studio in 1930s) are provided. The focus of Tcherkasski's research consists of a comparative reading of the Stanislavsky System and Yogi Ramacharaka's books, which were a main source for Stanislavsky. Accordingly, Tcherkasski analyzes elements of the System based on Yoga principles. Among them are: relaxation of muscles (muscular release), communication and prana, emission of rays and reception of rays, beaming of aura, sending of prana, attention, visualizations (mental images). Special attention is paid to the idea of the superconscious in Yoga, and in Ramacharaka's and Stanislavsky's theories. Tcherkasski's wide-ranging analysis has resulted in new and intriguing discoveries about the Russian master. Furthermore, he reveals the extent to which Stanislavsky anticipated modern discoveries in neurobiology and cognitive science. In this book Tcherkasski acts as a researcher, historian, theatre director, and experienced acting teacher. He argues that some forty per cent of basic exercises in any Stanislavsky based actor training program of today are rooted in Yoga. Actors, teachers, and students will find it interesting to discover that they are following in the footsteps of Yoga in their everyday Stanislavsky based training and rehearsals.

Book excerpt: Stanislavsky’s system of actor-training has revolutionised modern theatre practice, and he is widely recognised to be one of the great cultural innovators of the twentieth century. The Routledge Companion to Stanislavsky is an essential book for students and scholars alike, providing the first overview of the field for the 21st century.

Bringing together a dazzling selection of original scholarship, notable contributions include Anatoly Smeliansky on Stanislavsky’s letters; William D. Gunn on staging ideology at the Moscow Art Theatre; Sharon Marie Carnicke and David Rosen on opera; Rosemary Malague on the feminist perspective of new translations; W.B. Worthen on cognitive science; Julia Listengarten on the avant-garde; David Krasner on the System in America; and Dennis Beck on Stanislavsky’s legacy in non-realistic theatre.

Download or read book The Invisible Actor written by Yoshi Oida and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-10-01 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Invisible Actor presents the captivating and unique methods of the distinguished Japanese actor and director, Yoshi Oida. While a member of Peter Brook's theatre company in Paris, Yoshi Oida developed a masterful approach to acting that combined the oriental tradition of supreme and studied control with the Western performer's need to characterise and expose depths of emotion. Written with Lorna Marshall, Yoshi Oida explains that once the audience becomes openly aware of the actor's method and becomes too conscious of the actor's artistry, the wonder of performance dies. The audience must never see the actor but only his or her performance. Throughout Lorna Marshall provides contextual commentary on Yoshi Oida's work and methods. In a new foreword to accompany the Bloomsbury Revelations edition, Yoshi Oida revisits the questions that have informed his career as an actor and explores how his skilful approach to acting has shaped the wider contours of his life.
