• Stanislavski was working on a production of Tartuffe when he died in 1938. It was completed by Mikhail Kedrov and opened on 4 December 1939
  
• Collaborative Approach for ‘Tartuffe’
• Stanislavski recognised that in the past he had limited his actors’ ability to explore.
• The play was heavily improvised.  Now the process was all about the actors’ contributions.
• He went from making copious notes himself when he directed the Chekhov plays, to telling an actress who also did this to burn her notes.
• Purpose was the most important route into a part for an actor.
• He improved focus through ‘Circles of Attention’.
• He was dedicated to ‘Ensemble Playing.’
• He distanced himself from using ‘Emotion Memory’ as it led to too much introspection and put the actor at risk.
• Instead he concentrated on ‘The Method of Physical Action’.
• His process was now about collaboration and encouraging the actors to think for themselves.  
• He linked this to ‘Tempo Rhythm in Movement’ which was first introduced to him by Isadora
• Duncan and Jacques Dalcroze.
• He came to believe that truth came from collaboration.
