Theatre


The theatre collection covers a century of Russian and Soviet theatre history, with detailed materials on the 1920s - 30s, and is of interest to both professional researchers and general readers. It includes the writings of theatre practitioners such as Meyerhold, Stanislavsky, Vakhtangov, and Nemirovich-Danchenko; memoirs and biographies of directors, actors and designers; histories of the great theatre companies; children's theatre in the Soviet period; theatre criticism and theatre design.

The collection is backed up by the art reference section and Huntly Carter's theatre photographs in the SCRSS Photo Library.

Cinema

The cinema collection includes theoretical works on Soviet cinema by Eisenstein, Pudovkin and others; in-depth analyses of individual films from the earliest to modern classics; a significant collection of published scripts of classic Soviet films in English and Russian; memoirs, autobiographies and biographies of film directors, actors, cinematographers and other cinema workers.
