Answer 1

Answer: Where prominent actors received much attention with preparing a production while actors with small parts received almost no direction.

Step-by-step explanation:

For Stanislavsky, the star system had prominent actors who received much attention with preparing a production while actors with small parts received almost no direction.

He was the founder and one of the main financial resources of the Society of Art and Literature, which aimed for a better sense of ensemble, in line with Stanislavsky´s belief in the saying “There are no small parts, only small actors.”
