The work of William Shakespeare created between 1589 and 1613
has for many represented the apex of text-based performance
and stagecraft in the Western world for hundreds of years. The
"system", an approach to acting developed by Russian actor,
director and teacher Constantin Stanislavsky during the late
nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, can be seen as the
oxygen that contemporary theatre artists breathe in training,
rehearsal and performance. Is it possible for us to find ways
for our modern, naturalistic tradition of acting based in
Stanislavsky's "system" to address the particular demands of
Shakespeare? How might we as scholars, practitioners, teachers
and performers-in-training develop accessible and inclusive
approaches to these "two traditions" of Western performance
for the twenty-first century? </div>
