The Art of Dialogue
The actor’s profession is, first and foremost, an open system of communication in an endless dialogue with
his character, with his partner, with the director, with the spectators, with the playwright, with the role - but at
the end of this list we should say – the actor also has an infinite dialogue with himself. When the actor himself is
open, then he knows how to open others, and then they open up to him. The opening of another system, and of
another view, allows the actor to learn something new, to go beyond the boundaries of his familiar knowledge of the
world and himself.
In Theatre, dialogue is the art of creating with others. And for this, you need not only the talent of a Person but
also the skills and mastership of an Artist. In this book, you will be introduced to my research about dialogue on
stage, sketches of working methods and, of course, practical exercises. It’s important to me that you fi nd something
useful here, something questionable and even something which you don’t need at all. I hope you will fall in love
with dialogue on stage, and open up its artistic beauty for yourself.

Dr Jurij Alschitz is one of the most well-known and popular theatre teachers who educated thousands of students working around the world. He is widely known as a theatre researcher and as the author of many books on theatre pedagogy.
He received his first director training in Moscow under Prof. J. Malkovsky, one of the then last still living pupils of K.Stanislavsky. He received his second course of training at the GITIS – the Russian Academy for Theatre Arts, under Prof. M. Budkevich and Prof. A. Vasiliev, where he subsequently held a teaching post. After numerous creations in the main cities of the Soviet Union, in 1987, he took part in the foundation of the world famous theatre ”School of Dramatic Art – Anatoly Vasiliev”, where he went on further developing his own rehearsal and training methods.
Since 1992 Jurij Alschitz has been leading projects and teaching at universities and drama schools in East and West Europe, Asia, South and North America. Since 1994 he has created several theatre centres for education and research together with his master-students. They subsequently formed The European Association for Theatre Culture – EATC.

In 1999 he founded the international bi-annual festival for theatre training methods – METHODIKA (held in Cyprus, Italy, Sweden and Russia)
His current works are focused on the theoretical research and practical theatre training methods. In 2011 the project of Jurij Alschitz “The World Theatre Training Library“ – (WTTL) was recognised by the International Theatre Institute as one of the most important theatrical explorations of our time. In 2012 he proposed and realised the first MA Master Programme for Teaching Professional Theatre at UNAM, Mexico; which was further developed in 2015 in cooperation with European academies.
Jurij Alschitz developed through his latest research a completely new so-called spherical approach to theatre education using wave and resonance theory. With ALthatheatre he introduces Quantum Pedagogy for theatre education.
