[Paul Fryer]

*The S Word* presents a callfor papers for the edited 
collection,*///Stanislavsky a/**/nd//America; multi-represe//ntatio/n 
/and repair/*/./

This collection is supported by Rose Bruford College and will be 
submitted to Routledge to propose inclusion as part of the /Stanislavsky 
And... /book series.(Routledge, Taylor and Francis) 
https://www.routledge.com/Stanislavsky-And/book-series/STAS 
<https://www.routledge.com/Stanislavsky-And/book-series/STAS>.

America 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 (or intentionally omitting) the work of 
American adaptations or translations of the work of Stanislavsky and MKHAT.

Teachers, practitioners, and researchers of acting and performance are 
invited to explore, identify, investigate, articulate, document, and 
present American practices/practitioners that facilitate/create/invite 
multi-representation and/or practices and perspectives of repair.

Provocations include:

·How are American anti-racist theatre practitioners 
using/adapting/developing Stanislavsky and the Moscow Art Collective’s work?

·How are American disabled theatre companies and actors/actor trainers 
of determination using/adapting/developing Stanislavsky and MKHAT’s work?

·How are American practitioners queering Stanislavsky and MKHAT’s work, 
or using/adapting/developing these works in queer training spaces?

·How are American practitioners working in gender equity/equality 
theatre spaces using/adapting/developing Stanislavsky and MKHAT’s work?

This edited collection will consist of papers, provocations, post-cards, 
photo essays, digital archival submissions and other creative modes of 
transmission. We invite proposals for works that are up to 7,000 words 
or equivalent.

Please email abstracts of 300 words or less along with a brief biography 
to *Dr Dana Blackstone* (dana.blackstone at bruford.ac.uk) by the *3rd of 
December, 2024.* Successful proposals will be confirmed by the 2^nd of 
January, 2025.
