CHRISTOPHER FETTES is one of the great theatre and actor pedagogues of the UK and in fact world
theatre and cinema industry. He started as an actor working with the legendary East London
Theatre Company - Theatre Workshop under Joan Littlewood. He went on to join the ensemble
at the Royal Court theatre in
London during its heyday in the fifties with George Divine and Tony Richardson.
After meeting Yat Malmgren, with whom he shared a partnership spanning nearly fifty years,
Christopher developed a career both as a theatre director of some renown (Christopher
directed a number of famous productions – notably his seminal interpretation of Marlowes - 'Dr
Faustus' and Schniztlers – 'The Lonely Road' with two of his acting students - ANTHONY HOPKINS
and COLIN FIRTH. Christopher introduced the work of Calderon de la Barca to the British stage
and created a fascination with the work of Thomas Bernhard.
Christopher's great contribution came with his joint founding with Yat Malmgren in 1963 of the
Drama Centre London an acting conservatoire that was literally to change the face of training
in the UK and around the world.
Christopher introduced the Method to the UK initially with the great UK METHOD ACTOR Harold
Lang teaching at the centre and then by inviting UTA HAGENS protege - Doreen Cannon - to
head the acting department. Later an assistant of LEE STRASBERG - Reuven Adiv was to take
over the department.
Christopher's great innovation was to combine the American developments of Stanislavski,
with the great European Classical tradition and with the Laban Jungian system of 'Character
Analysis' as developed by Yat Malmgren.
Initally seen as a dissident organisation by the British acting world who really didn't want
to endure the demands of actually 'feeling' something 'for real' as was demanded by the Method,
the school kept on turning out notable actors.
There are huge numbers of recognised British actors who owe their training to Yat and Christopher
- these include - Anthony Hopkins, Sean Connery, Colin Firth, Pierce Brosnan, Michael Fassbender,
Paul Bettany, Tom Hardy, Anne Marie Duff, Geraldine James,Francis de la Tour, Tara Fitzgerald,
Helen McRory among many others.
Other graduates of the academy run National Theatres all over the world and others head drama
schools based on the Drama Centre Model – most notably NIDA and the Actors Centre in Sidney Australia
who have turned out actors such as Cate Blanchett, Nicole Kidman, Hugh Jackman, Hugo Weaving, Judy
Davis etc. So to honour and preserve the work of Yat Malmgren (who died inn 2002) Christopher has written
a book - 'A Peopled Labryinth' - the only body of work that deals comprehensively with 'The Histrionic Sense'
or the Law of Expression. We are hoping that the book will be printed next year.
YAT MALMGREN was one of the great solo artists of European modern dance and later became
a legend in British actor training having been the creator of the Laban-Malmgren System of
Character Analysis.
Yat initially taught at a small studio in West Street, London and there became the acting guru
of Sean Connery. He was invited by Lawrence Olivier to work at the fledgling National Theatre
and later taught a young Anthony Hopkins at the Royal Academy. He went on to found the
Drama Centre, London which was created around his work and which has subsequently
produced some of the greatest names in British and world theatre and cinema.
The technique is based on the psychological theories of Carl Jung (Sensing, Thinking,
Intuiting and Feeling) and the work of Rudolph Laban. Rudolph Laban, architect of European
Contemporary Dance, codified a system of analysing and classifying movement in all its
aspects, not only physical, but also in its expressive manifestations and psychological
impulses. Malmgren extended these ideas to create a psychological typology which brings
together Laban and Stanislavsky.
This fusion of internal motivation and expressive technique offers the actor a holistic training
and the basis for constructing character. The theory suggests that we have all of Jung’s
archetypes within us, some more developed, more active than others.
The specific combination of these energies makes us who we are. Essentially through a set of
rhythms it sensitises the actor to these archetypes or subconscious ‘psychological energies’
within himself/herself and how they express themselves physically. Eventually it demonstrates
how to realign them in different combinations - thus allowing the actor to transform into
another human being in a psychologically ‘real’ way.
Personality can be seen as a rhythm, or to put it another way, rhythms can induce a different
inner state and consequently a different outer expression or set of movements. The technique
therefore provides knowledge of how to reveal a character’s impulse through the body in a
psychologically specific way.
