Vasiliev’S Methodology: Situational And Ludo Structures

Keywords

ludo structure; stituational structure; Vasiliev

Abstract

A student of Maria Knebel, Anatoly Vasiliev has developed a unique model of actor training that combines the principle of Active Analysis, rooted in the teachings of both Stanislavski and Knebel, with the concept of ludo or ludic theatrical structures that Vasiliev developed through his pedagogy and directing. This focus on what Vasiliev calls “ludo structure,” based on the conceptual analysis of the text, versus “situational structure,” based on the psychological analysis, is at the core of Vasiliev’s pedagogy. This article shares specific examples from his class discussions and scene work that embody Vasiliev’s theatrical philosophy, conceptualize his pedagogy, and place it in the context of Stanislavski’s legacy in contemporary theatre.
