Michael Alfreds (born 5 June 1934) is an English theatre director, adaptor, translator and teacher.
Michael Alfreds was born in London in 1934 and trained as a director at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh.
He lived in the United States for eight years (1954–1962), during which time he worked for MGM Studios in Hollywood, was artistic director of Theatre West, Tucson, and then of the Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park.
Alfreds began teaching acting and directing at the London Opera Centre and taught at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art (LAMDA) in London from 1965 to 1970.
For five years he worked in Israel (1970–1975), where he became the artistic director of the Jerusalem Khan Theatre and contributed immensely to its development.
He later served as a senior lecturer in drama at the University of Tel Aviv from 1971 to 1973.
Alfreds has conducted workshops and masterclasses globally, including locations such as St Andrews, Melbourne, Wellington, and Beijing, covering various techniques such as storytelling, melodrama, and the methods of Chekhov and Stanislavski.
He has collaborated with theatre companies like the Royal Shakespeare Company and the Royal National Theatre, and worked with the Shakespeare Festival Theatre in Canada and the Actors Studio in New York.
Alfreds has also taught dance and choreography workshops, contributing to theatre education through training courses and workshops for organisations worldwide.
In the UK, Alfreds founded Shared Experience in 1975 and ran it for thirteen years.
He worked as a director at the Royal National Theatre between 1985 and 1988, and was an associate and artistic director of the Cambridge Theatre Company, later renamed Method and Madness, from 1991 to 1999.
He has directed for Shakespeare's Globe, Royal Shakespeare Company, and for several regional repertory theatres.
As well as the USA and Israel, Alfreds has worked in Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Germany, Norway, France, Italy, Mongolia and China.
He has staged over two hundred productions, and won awards both internationally and in the UK.
He has translated the texts of several of his productions and has also specialised in the adaptation of novels and stories for the stage and has developed techniques for storytelling in the theatre.
Alfreds has written three books on his working methods: Different Every Night, which deals with his rehearsal processes for plays; Then What Happens, concerning his methods of working on adaptations; and What Actors Do, which is a philosophy of his process.
He has divided his career between directing and teaching acting and directing.
Alfreds is known for his special method of working with actors, inspired amongst others by the principles of Constantin Stanislavski and Rudolf Laban, with emphasis on physical work, scrupulous analysis of text, spontaneity and interaction with others during the play in minimalistic productions.
