In recent years, scholars have completely reassessed the modernist avant-garde. Migrating Modernist Performance contributes to this ongoing objective, analyzing the transmission (and appropriation) of theatrical techniques and performance methodologies from Russia to Britain. The book discusses the work of practitioners who journeyed to the USSR during the early decades after the Revolution (such as Huntly Carter, Basil Dean, Cicely Hamilton and Herbert Marshall), influential Russian emigres like Michael Chekhov and Russian practitioners who shaped the British stage, such as Sergei Diaghilev. The book makes a timely contribution to ongoing debates in modernist performance scholarship and reworking recent models of transnational modernism.
