Onde está a experiência do ator?

Abstract

It’s not about the ways, the procedures, the how goes the work of an actor. It’s about where it goes. Let’s put it this way: doing it in a certain way, what’s the existential place, where does the actor find himself in terms of experience? It is necessary, then, to discuss about technique, not only how, but also with what the actor works, the conditions that make his experience experiencible. However, we must not confuse conditions with fundaments or principles. It is not about discovering what is already there. It’s about choices, creations, inventions, strategies that help to build a territory where an experience can happen.
