This conference will bring together prominent scholars and theatre
practitioners from various parts of the world to explore the theoretical,
empirical and aesthetic insights and influences of Constantin Stanislavski
on the art of directing.
Proposals are invited for research papers, panels and roundtables
on any aspect of Stanislavski’s historic ‘system’
related to the art of direction, from theoretical base and methodological
applications and adaptations in production to current critical
perspectives and multiplex legacy in theatre as well as film practice.
Non-traditional presentations are welcome; graduate student submissions
are especially encouraged.
Individual critical submissions should include a titled abstract
of no more than 500 words, complete contact information and institutional
affiliation. Panel proposals should include a session title, the
name of the contact person for the session, contact information
of each presenter, and abstracts of each paper. Note any visual
resources needed.
