Sześć pierwszych lekcji [Acting: The First Six Lessons] Translated by: Mirosław Połatyński Publisher: Toronto-Mississauga Date: 2013 ISBN: 978-83-87870-65-2 Dimensions: 125×195 mm Softcover: 168 Price: 9 Euro Richard Boleslawski (1889–1937), actor of the Moscow Art Theatre, actor and director of the First Studio; in the 1910s he participated in all the key moments of the evolution of the Stanislavski System. His theatre work in Poland (Teatr Polski, Teatr Mały) and the US, where he became Artistic Director of the American Laboratory Theatre (1923–1930), was of crucial importance to the history of the world-wide dissemination of the Stanislavski System in the 20th century. Staging plays and teaching in the 1920s and 1930s, with no opportunity for direct dialogue with Stanislavski, Boleslawski not only adapted the System to the needs of his new students, but also creatively developed it. |
