Summary "This is the first full-length study of the theatre company, the Maly Drama Theatre of St. Petersburg, and its director, Lev Dodin." "Maria Shevtsova provides insight into Dodin's directorial processes and the company's actor training, devising and rehearsal methods, which she interweaves with detailed analysis of the Maly's main productions. Dodin and the Maly Drama Theatre: Process to Performance demonstrates how the impact of Dodin's work extends far beyond that of his native Russia, and gives the reader access to the company's practice ... Including a foreword by Simon Callow, Dodin and the Maly Drama Theatre provides both a methodological model for actor training and insight into the journeys taken from studio to stage"--Jacket
