Staging Russian Prose -- .This book tackles questions about the reception and production of translated and untranslated Russian theatre in post-WW2 Britain: why in British minds is Russia viewed almost as a run-of-the-mill production of a Chekhov play. Is it because Chekhov is so dominant in British theatre culture? What about all those other Russian writers? Many of them are very different from Chekhov. A key question was formulated, thanks to a review by Susannah Clapp of Turgenev's A Month in the Country: have the British staged a 'Russia of the theatrical mind'?Performing artsTheaterRussiaHistoryEurope, EasternHistorySoviet UnionHistoryTheaterHistoryCultural industriesAdaptation (Literary, artistic, etc.)Theatre and Performance ArtsRussian, Soviet, and East European HistoryContemporary Theatre and PerformanceGlobal and International Theatre and PerformanceTheatre IndustryAdaptation StudiesPerforming arts.Theater.RussiaHistory.Europe, EasternHistory.Soviet UnionHistory.TheaterHistory.Cultural industries.Adaptation (Literary, artistic, etc.)Theatre and Performance Arts.Russian, Soviet, and East European History.Contemporary Theatre and Performance.Global and International Theatre and Performance.Theatre Industry.Adaptation Studies.801.950947301Marsh Cynthiaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut909276MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910484152903321Translated and Visiting Russian Theatre in Britain, 1945-20154329731UNINA
