Abstract

Most of the current methods of educating an actor and director of the 21st century theatre are, to a certain extent, based on the experience of the masters of the last century. Their works, the principles of the well-developed director-pedagogical, acting and philosophical systems up to this day remain under the watchful eye of both theorists and practitioners of the world theatre community. The development of methodological techniques, the search for new meanings and tasks of actual theatrical directing is a consequence of the continuous search for the truth of stage culture in twentieth century. The purpose of this work is to find and highlight a bright palette, both popular and not so widely known systems in Russian theatre school, made to analyze and develop the actor’s self-determination of contemporaries at the beginning of the last century. Among them, special attention is paid to K. S. Stanislavsky, Vs.E. Meyerhold, F.A. Stepun and N.V. Demidov. An up-to-date analysis of their directorial, pedagogical and philosophical systems, typologies of acting makes it possible to predict the direction of intentions of a modern actor in relation to the profession, which ultimately determines his place in the theatre community of the 21st century.
