Challenges for actor’s work in the era of post-psychological theatre

Summary/Abstract: When facing the post-dramatic texts and performances, an actor cannot appeal only to psychology, which was essential in the theatre of the end of the 19th century and almost the whole 20th century. The results of the research of phenomenology, neuroscience, cognitive sciences and anthropology have changed the conception of acting. In the contemporary theatre an actor creates instead of interpreting and accumulates and emits energy instead of representing. An actor realising that the nature of transmitting perception and experience is corporeal should develop physically perceptive sensibility or, in other words, train the facility of tuning the impulses of body and mind in order to be capable of integrating himself into any aesthetical system.
