Stella Adler

Stanislavski was extremely concerned that the actors would get distracted by the audience when they are performing on stage. Stanislavski came up with a way to make actors observe in a way in which it would help them develop their acting making them more focused and aware. The audience is very important to the overall piece, however he did not find them a ‘crippling factor’. Stanislavski came to realise that actor’s lost control of their basic acting skills on stage. Moreover it was recognised…

Stanislavski’s work has not only helped people to become better actors, but also have helped others to become better people by helping them understand themselves. He has provided a system to help actors process of characterization which can also be applied to one’s everyday life. The first way Stanislavski’s work that stood out to me was the first proposition he makes for having actors become like the characters. He mentions how one must believe that that he or she is convincingly in the same…

The Complete Stanislavsky Toolkit The reading for the approach to the rehearsal process continues. The text discussed the importance of the director and their assistance and guidance during the rehearsal process by establishing the aesthetic. After the discussion on the “Method of Physical actions” we moved to a new discussion concerning “Active analysis.” I personally feel that a lot of the material covered from the reading was previously discussed.

He thought if his actors observed the object intensively enough, a desire would arise in them, to do something with it. Although, the actors lost basic faculties…

character which consists of stark contraries. She is dreamy and refined, educated and naive, childish and calculating, self-confident and shy, or angelic pure and immoral at the same time (Poppe 60). She grows up in a sheltered atmosphere with her sister, Stella, at the plantation Belle Reve. The name "Belle Reve" means "beautiful dream" in French and represented a wealthy and beautiful manor at that time. With the loss of the manor, Blanche escapes real life by fleeing into her illusions which…

“Delia Robbia blue” robe (11.135.26.), “the blue of the robe in the old Madonna pictures”. In this scene her purification can be closely related to religious symbols, as the Madonna picture, the church bells and the grape, Christ’s cleansing blood. (Adler 46). The arrival of the doctor and his assistant does not serve as her salvation but somehow changes the atmosphere of the play and gives the readers a slight relief from all of the tension bottled up in the mind of the characters, their…
