Abstract
Early twentieth century Armenian theater activist Megerditch Djanan (1892-1938) had a significant input to Armenian theater, not only as a talented actor and playwright, but also through his theoretical contribution and studies of the art of the stage.
The author singles out one such study and analyses its structure and content.
The study is written to highlight the basics of the art of acting and is co-authored by Arshavir Shahkhatuni. It was written in 1922 in Constantinople, where they had become the central figures of the theater group of Hay Dramatic Enkerutiun. Their work still raises interest as they tried to convey in a very simple and brief way the basic principles which the actor needs to start his/her performing career.
Both authors had received a professional education. Shahkhatuni had studied in Moscow and Djanan in Paris, and they tried to integrate the early 20th century Russian and European styles of acting. They believed such an integration would put Armenian theater on a different level qualitatively and help in initiating a new acting style.
