Summary: This article examines the issues of race, racism, and anti-racism in a historical example of British radical theatre-in-education in the 1980s. It argues that while the programme had progressive aims, it also reproduced a racial hierarchy and white-centric narratives in its theatrical representation of Black experience. The importance of critical historiographical work in dismantling white-centric practices in drama and theatre education is emphasized.

Summary: Stanislavsky's Active Analysis, also known as his latter practice, is a powerful tool for integrating the elements of a script into an actor's performance. However, it can be challenging for beginners who are used to relying on scripts. This essay presents scaffolding techniques to help students navigate the freedom offered by Active Analysis, reducing anxiety and enhancing their embodiment of the role. These practices align with bell hooks' emphasis on student self-actualization and contribute to the development of actor-creators as desired by Stanislavsky.
