The above mentioned conference was held under the auspices of the ITI/UNESCO Network for Higher Education in the Performing Arts, on the basis of the World Theater Training Institute "AKT -ZENT” (ITI Research Center) and in the frame of the VI International Theatre and Education Online-Festival-Forum “Nauruz”. The Festival-Forum was organized by the Galiaskar Kamal Tatar State Academic Theater (Kazan, the Republic of Tatarstan, Russia), where I work as the artistic director. Our theatre has once in two years been holding the education Festival-Forum “Nauruz” since 2010. During this period more than three thousand people from Tatarstan, Russia and the CIS have completed their performing arts tuition under the supervision of almost one hundred of specialists in different areas of theatre training. This year because of the restrictions imposed by the pandemic we took the liberty of making our traditional educational program online. It should be noted that such a format allowed us to increase participant number, and more importantly, allowed for a continuation of communication. I am grateful to Tobias Biancone, the President of the ITI/UNESCO Network for Higher Education in the Performing Arts and Director General of the International Theatre Institute who is our ongoing teacher and tutor. I would also like to express my gratitude to Dr. Jurij Alschitz, the Director of the World Theater Training Institute "AKT–ZENT” and Christine Schmalor, the Conference moderator, for their active participation, brilliant ideas and their realization. I got lots of wonderful impressions and reflections on the theatre, its essence, past and future during the conference dates, June 15-17. I also had the feeling of the theatre community that keeps up with the times and tries things out, having no fear of going wrong. The theater was challenged. And many of us could immediately reform, change their work methods and even get very interesting experiment results in the sphere of online training. On the one hand, the experiments convinced me that it is possible to go online in the process of directors’ and actors’ tuition (I have been teaching for more than 30 years). This training format gives some brand new tools and has good prospects for further development. On the other hand, though it seems surprising, the online format did prove that theatre is a living art, and theatrical knowledge that we try to transmit online is aimed at teaching how to evoke a lively emotion and human response in the audience. This professional talk became our mutual theater mind challenge to the hastily changing modern epoch that makes us change together with it. It seems to me that in these days the realization of the following fact hit all of us. No matter how we are pressed and lead by time, it is necessary for theatre and theater education to preserve the foundations of living, 4 quivering, leisurely, and contemplative, better comprehension of theatrical truths. And during this downtime, this forced disconnection from the live theater “oxygen”, we are all the more convinced that real, full-blooded, tangible life is the true theater basis. This forced stop assumed the meaning of lost time that should be realized and recovered … in any and every possible ways including virtual ones. Surprisingly online communication allows us to approach this aim when live

  • I Have Been Asked to Speak About Theatre in the 21St Century
    Jurij Alschitz Lectures on "Theatre in the 21st Century" I have been asked to speak about theatre in the 21st Century. But predictions about the theatre are always very complicated - in fact it's impossible to make predictions about the theatre. I recall a few prognoses about 20th Century theatre and doubt that any of these have actually come to pass. I'm under the impression that the theatre always knows more about itself than we can ever imagine. Occasionally, I try to image the position from which the theatre looks at us, our lives, our conference, our teaching, our productions...no doubt with great irony at our attempts to look into the future. It gazes at us like a giant peering down on Lilliputians. How shall I go about venturing predictions about the 21st Century when we aren't even certain about what the 20th has really brought us. We have about 100 days until the end of the century, but no one is able to tell us what we have done in the 20th Century. It was a great century for theatre. Important trends, great transformations and revelations. I am amazed at how many colleagues at this conference have mentioned the name Stanislavsky. As a scientist Stanislavsky often changed his mind. He never attempted to stick in his opinion forever. Young Stanislavsky's findings and the works at the end of his live are two totally different "Stanislavskies". But people grasp on to that which they understand and say "this is Stanislavsky". Like the young acting students who take one acting seminar and already think they know "this is theatre, this is the method" - this in glaring contrast to our in fact very limited knowledge of the theatre.

  • Programme VIII METHODIKA International Festival for Theatre Training Methods Berlin 27.11
    Programme VIII METHODIKA International Festival for Theatre Training Methods Berlin 27.11. - 2.12.2018 The festival is created by Jurij Alschitz’ European Team of Teachers, master students and long-term collaborators. The speakers, workshop leaders and performers share their artistic experiences and research which was influenced by the work of Jurij Alschitz throughout the last 20 years. The team of teachers - Olga Lapina, Riccardo Palmieri, Christine Schmalor, Dimitris Tsiamis – have proposed four main themes for the festival and will each lead one day. Due to the nature of the school of Jurij Alschitz, the contributions refer to more than one theme. During the course of four days, we will experience cross-references to the different aspects of the Master’s training and philosophy, discuss new emerging ideas and on the fifth day, hear about his newest research about Holistic Theatre. Jurij Alschitz will speak about his upcoming experimental educational project ALthattheatre which introduces Quantum Pedagogy. In the evenings, we will enjoy performances and share experiences - and of course celebrate the TRANSITION towards the World Theatre Training Institute AKT-ZENT’s new life on Saturday. 2 Welcome to the VIII METHODIKA Dear colleagues, This edition of METHODIKA is special for many different reasons. The International Festival for Theatre Training Methods has a new and collective organisation. The Team of Teachers introduces itself together for the very first time. We feel bound by the School of Jurij Alschitz and have been teaching in line with his methodical Training for many years even though artistic individuality also means using different paths. And this is exactly what distinguishes the unique Method of Jurij Alschitz – the Resonance challenges ones’ own creativity.

Greetings from Shanghai, China, from the General Secretariat Team of ITI. The lunar new year holiday that China experienced was not a happy one as it should be. As you may know, due to the new Coronavirus outbreak in a few areas of China, the whole country is now going through some serious problems. Strong efforts to fight against the outbreak and the prevention of more cases are done. After a 10-day stay-at-home lunar year holiday, the General Secretariat Team has resumed its work on 3 February. If you have any questions or needs, you can still reach the General Secretariat. The work of the office continues to be done. However, as the government and experts strongly suggest that citizens should avoid gathering. That is why the members of the General Secretariat will only return to work in the office at the beginning of March. The good news is that the Shanghai authorities have been successful in dealing with the virus and things are getting back to normal, step by step. We will keep you updated on the situation here. If you have any questions, please write to us over info(at)iti-worldwide.org. W i h f t d h lth t ll f A d h th t th iti ll th We wish safety and health to all of you. And we hope that authorities all over the world will keep the health issues well under control so that each and everyone can experience safe and healthy days and do the intended work without fear.
