	Group Theatre - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Group Theatre was a theater collective, formed in New York in 1931 by Harold Clurman, Cheryl Crawford and Lee Strasberg.
		The name "Group" came from the idea of the actors as a pure ensemble; there were to be no "stars." The company's first original play was the labor one-act Waiting for Lefty by Clifford Odets, produced in 1935.
		In 1947, many former Group members formed or joined the longer-lasting Actors Studio, where the techniques they'd developed were refined and taught.

		They conceived The Group Theatre as a response to what they saw as the old-fashioned light entertainment that dominated the theater of the late 1920’s.
		His highly charged plays, which were often expressed in the language and circumstances of working-class characters, mirrored the essence of what the group wanted to be and do, fulfilling the dream of a theater speaking to and for its audience.
		Many of the group’s members went on to become leading acting teachers and directors, passing on to subsequent generations the spirit and principles that motivated them.

	Untitled Document
		Inspired by the revolutionary theories of Russian director Konstantin Stanislavski, the Group Theatre, was composed of a collection of Theater Guild talent, who bonded to create a theater with a closer relationship to "art" than the Guild represented.
		Idealistic and young (the average age was somewhere around 25), the group was united by a belief that theater was too involved with a "star" system, not particularly interested in the problems of "real life", too dependent on "hit or flop" commercialism, and that the art of acting itself was too artificial and fabricated.
		The Group Theater was disbanded in 1940 after a number of rifts and restructures had adulterated the Group's original concepts.

		Founded as a student theatre at the University of Poznan in 1964 under the aegis of the state socialist student union (SZSP), by the 1980s the 8th Day had become the most famous of the underground alternative theatre groups.
		Accordingly, the group would effectively prepare two versions of productions: the first for the censor, with most of the contentious material removed, which was accepted for performance, when the unacceptable matter would be restored.
		The group's performances shocked their sometimes coerced audiences, and it was obvious that the group was tolerated as a token example of alternative theatre.
