*/The S Word: Stanislavski in Context/*

*Annual Symposium organised by *

*The Stanislavski Centre and The Department of Theatre Studies 
(University of Malta)*

*in collaboration with The University of California Riverside.*

*5^th , 6^th , 7^th April 2019*

**Venue:**The Valletta Campus of the University of Malta, Valletta, Malta

Keynote speakers: Prof. Laurence Senelick (Tufts University)

Prof. Vicki Ann Cremona (University of Malta)

Co-conveners: Dr. Paul Fryer (The Stanislavski Centre)

Dr Stefan Aquilina (University of Malta)

Creative Adviser: Prof. Bella Merlin (University of California Riverside)

Following on from the past three successful editions of the Symposium, 
we are very pleased to announce the *Call for Papers/Presentations* for 
the fourth major event of *The S Word* project.**

In choosing ‘Stanislavski in Context’ as its title, the 2019 edition of 
The S Word Symposium shows a dual ambition. It invites proposals that 
reflect on Stanislavski’s work within the social, cultural, and 
political milieus in which it developed without however forgetting the 
ways in which this work was transmitted, adapted, and appropriated 
within recent and current theatre contexts. The Symposium’s reach, 
therefore, is both historical as well as contemporary, and participants 
are encouraged to think of Stanislavski both as an instigator of modern 
theatre as well as a paradigm for performance practices within 
twenty-first-century training and performance scenarios.

We invite proposals for contributions in the following formats:

·an individual conventional paper (20 minutes);

·practical/workshop sessions (40 minutes);

·panel presentations (a minimum of three participants) (60 minutes);

·and, for the first time this year, practice-as-research 
sessions/practical presentations (20 minutes).

In the first instance please send a short written proposal (no more than 
300 words) to Dr. Paul Fryer (paul at paulfryer.me.uk) and Dr Stefan 
Aquilina (stefan.aquilina at um.edu.mt <mailto:stefan.aquilina at um.edu.mt>), 
to arrive no later than *30^th November 2018*. Please include a short 
bionote.

*Publication*: Selected papers and other material from this event will 
be published in a special edition of the journal, /Stanislavski 
Studies/, in March 2020.
