About Stanislavsky, Nemirovich-Danchenko and the Moscow Art Theatre

 


The introduction of Russian ballet into French society caused many changes for that culture. It affected fashion, trends, styles, etc. What I want to know is whether or not it had this effect in Russia. Did the group perform in Russia? Did it have the large effect on the culture like it did in France.

I noticed that the Moscow Art Theatre was based in Moscow. Does this have any significance, and if so, what does it reveal about the cultural atmosphere of the city. Did the different histories of Moscow and St. Petersburg produce any contrast in their artistic and cultural life that lasted through the twentieth century?

How did the communist revolution affect Stanislavsky and Russian theatre?
