What is it?
The Stanislavsky System is when there is a character development process, this is to make the performance 'real'. The system was created to portray believeable and natural people on stage. This notion was a striking contrast in 19th century Russia where the actor and acting where essentially two separate things.
In class we also learn new stage terms like...
Crossover- When two actors 'exchange' stage positioning in an diagonal line.
General Stage Direction-
Give and Take- When one character is more prominent than the other. So the character that is less prominent is giving the scene and the prominent character is taking the scene.
