as it is currently imaged conjures a multitude of
questions, about hegemonies of gender and sexuality,
racism, multi-representation (inclusivity) and repair. We
are looking for those whose practice and scholarship
around these issues, and around America itself -as a
construct and reality- intersect with their work on
Stanislavsky/MKHAT in unique and exciting ways. We are
defining ‘American’ as ‘in the context of’: those who
identify as American, or those global practitioners
engaging with the work of American adaptations or
translations of the work of Stanislavsky and MKHAT.</span></p>
