Summary/Abstract: The methods in the Actor’s Art and Craft have always been and will always be different from one generation to the next, from one period to the next and from one product to the next. Whether we are talking about theatre or film, aesthetic forms, stylistic forms and means of expression have always differed, undergone changes and been put under scrutiny in order to discover, enrich and develop the Actor’s Art and Craft. As the main element with which the spectator comes into contact, the one without which no theatre performance or film can exist, analysis invariably requires enhanced attention to turn conventionality into truthfulness, the artificial into reality, and elevate the horizontality of the text to the actor’s human verticality.
