BiographyNola Chilton was born in Brooklyn, New York to Jewish immigrants from Odessa. Her mother died of tuberculosis when she was twelve. Her father was a jewelry engraver and food peddler. She studied acting under Lee Strasberg and worked at the Actors Studio, coaching actors and directing. In 1960, she directed an off-off Broadway production of "Dead End," a radical play about the miserable lives of poverty-stricken young people, in which Dustin Hoffman appeared.[2] In 1963, Chilton immigrated to Israel, settling in Kiryat Gat, then a small town in the northern Negev. She worked briefly for the Cameri Theater but was not enamored with the Tel Aviv scene, which reminded her of what she had left behind. She adopted a 2-year-old girl and moved to the north of the country, first to Kibbutz Ma'agan Michael and then Kibbutz Yasur. She was married to author John Auerbach, who died in 2002. Chilton is now a resident of Kibbutz Sdot Yam.[2] Legacy and influenceChilton was the inspiration for The Open Theater, an experimental theatre group active from 1963 to 1973 in New York City founded by her students to implement her "post-method," post-absurd acting technique through a collaborative process that explores political, artistic, and social issues.[3] References1. ^Staging the Other Israel: The Documentary Theatre of Nola Chilton {{DEFAULTSORT:Chilton, Nola}}2. ^1 One woman show at 91: Nola Chilton is not here to appease the audience, Haaretz 3. ^{{cite book|last=Blumenthal|first=Eileen|title=Joseph Chaikin: Exploring at the Boundaries of Theater|year=1984|publisher=Cambridge University Press|location=Cambridge|isbn=0521285895|url=https://books.google.com/?id=0LA8AAAAIAAJ&printsec=frontcover&dq=%22the+open+theater%22#v=onepage&q&f=false|edition=1. publ.}} 5 : Israeli theatre directors|Israel Prize women recipients|1922 births|Living people|Israel Prize in theatre recipients |
