The Moscow Art Theatre is still recognized as having more impact on modern theatre than any company in the world.

Edited by renowned theatre historian Vera Gottlieb, the volume also reproduces - for the first time in an English translation - introductions by Stanislavsky's collaborators Nemirovich-Danchenko and Efros.
