Overview

This study describes and applies the pedagogical method of the actor, director, and dramatic theorist, Michael Chekhov (1891-1955), as a unique phenomenon in the broader context of modern theatre history.

This volume offers a hypothetical syllabus and study guide for a 6-credit university survey course on the Chekhov techniques, along with supporting materials. Appendices include a new, complete translation of Chekhov's Russian-language version of "To The Actor" (O technike aktera), Chapter One, on Psychological Gesture. Interviews with fourteen present-day Chekhov method teacher-practitioners, members of MICHA and other associated groups and institutions tying up with Michael Chekhov's Pedagogy from Europe to America, Volume I.

Each volume is designed as a stand-alone book, but the complete two-volume collection will be of great interest to all students and scholars in performance studies.
