La versatilidad del actor : de la calle a la sala

Abstract

ABSTRACT The determining action exerted by the space on the behaviors and relationships that define interpersonal communication and decree the objectual atmospheres1 in the construction of the scenic space, composed by the dramaturgy, defines the acting versatility. From my experience as an actor, I have been able to show that the street theater and the theater of the hall show contrasts in terms of spatial management, corporality and relations with the public; by building powerful means of expression, which materialized, they become necessary tools for the versatility of the actor as an analogy between the internal and external rhythms capable of bringing up the questioning between interpretative versatility and its relation to the stage space. The way we use the space determines the language that we want to build there: the open spaces as spirits of mutability ready for anything that can be unexpected, and the room as a planned and manageable medium in the enormous possibility of what is planned; they specify the two major scenarios through which the actor transits, and of which, I use to think about the transformation of the different stage spaces and the material provided in each one of them for the scenic and versatile construction of the actor.
