2005 updates: Small Chekhov Fall * "Four Farces & One Funeral" -- Chekhov.05
Chekhov's one-acts are updated -- The Bear, The Proposal (1st act -- Oh, Love!), Wedding, Tobacco (Act II -- Ah, Marriage!), but I'm still working on the "funeral" (Last Day of Anton Chekhov). mini-chekhov
I am teaching DramLit -- groups.yahoo.com/group/dramlit (subscribe) and see THR215 for subjects, topics, titles.
Spring 2006 -- Waiting for Godot, Beckett -- new pages ( see shows )
[ advertising space : webmaster ]
I don't know why it took me so long to notice that I practice hyperdrama (hypertext) as a webmaster. For example, the pages on acting. There are subject pages related in horizontal associations (monologue, improvisation, composition), but there are vertical lines -- acting one, two, three (with the same subjects as monologue, improv and so on). Now I have to create more subdirectories (deeper vertical hierarchy) in each acting directory. The question -- how to show vertical hierarchy within the horizontal one? Is it "scene study" out of "monologue study"? Opposite? Both ways?
How does it relate to the new dramatic organization of a hyperplay? Well, a thought is vertical (emotion even more so), therefore drama is the vertical experience (the conflict does the focusing). What is "story" as not carving the vertical field out of many horizontal levels?...
I will finish it @ plays.vtheare.net (I hope).
my PLAYS (in Russian, in progress)
Writing Pages: Write directoryEnglish
plays.vtheatre.net: new, in Russiannew
Well, there is the basic division: this directory in English, the new one - in Russian... and PLAYS directory @ Ant Theatre is not working (server is gone).
Or to put it differently: this directory is a mixture of my plays and good plays (classics), the new one -- plays-in-progress (in English, sometimes only ideas about plays)...

[ There are too many texts that are not on the web and too many in my handwritten files. ]
This is my forgotten directory; for several years I am working working on my nonfiction and textbooks (ebooks). Spring 2002: I write plays again, but this time in Russian (must send it ahead of myself to Moscow).
One the troubles -- all my directory have it's the linear narrative -- what is next? My story!
Since the traffic gets high, I have to spend time transforming my notes into webpages!

This is a "diary" part of the play directory; my reflections on my pages...
I collect the plays I like, I use, I read. Beckett (new) or Chekhov, the texts I teach and directed, or wish to stage. I have them here, because I have to comment on them, write my thoughts for classes or productions. Or sometimes for myself, my own writings.
Postmodern Theatre = teatr.us
"My Chekhov" = chekhov.us
... Who knows when I could have another chance to update this page/directory? Best way for you to know it is to subscribe to my mailing list and/or theatre blog.
