Summary/Abstract: The present article aims to illustrate the specific ways in which theatrical pedagogy builds the student-actor's personality. The education process of the drama school has two important sides: instruction and education. By instruction the future student-actor gets to see beyond what is seen, to hear beyond what is heard and understand beyond words and through education he improves his biophysical and psychological potential seen as a whole, thus preparing to respond to unpredictable demands which he will encounter both in life and theatre. Being oriented towards self-knowledge, not only knowledge, theatrical education outperforms the traditional education, by developing the individual in a group, helping to develop his capacity to work and function effectively in a team.
