  • Summary

  • We return to the story of Michael Chekhov; his auspicious start from the early days of the Moscow Art Theatre, his exile from Russia after the revolution and the rocky road that led him to that fateful encounter down the street from the Group Theatre in 1935. It was there he met the young Beatrice Straight, talented actress and heiress to the Payne Whitney fortune, who offered him the chance to build his own school and acting company at Dartington Hall in England. In the competition for the attention of young actors between Michael Chekhov and Michel Saint-Denis that took place in the UK in 1935, Chekhov never had a chance.
