Opis

For whom does the actor perform? Addressing this question, Acting after Grotowski focuses on an actor’s work as a self-revelatory deed. Introducing Grotowski’s concept of "carnal prayer," Kris Salata develops an interdisciplinary theory of acting and spectating, while lending thoughts to theatre as a liturgical performance.
