face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"> 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? <br>
