· Eugenio Barba's training methods
· Jerzy Grotowski's most recent investigations
· The Japanese American NOHO companies attempts at integrating Kyogen into the works of Samuel Beckett
· Descriptions of the training methods developed by Tadashi Suzuki and Anne Bogart at their Saratoga International Theatre Institute
· Recent efforts to re-examine the role and scope of training, like Britain's International Workshop Festival and the European League of Institutes of Arts masterclasses
· The reformulation of the use of emotions in performer training known as Alba Emoting.
