The Actor's Body

The Actor’s Body refers to how performers use their physical presence to convey emotions, character, and storytelling. It involves control, awareness, and expression of movement, posture, and gesture to bring authenticity to a role. By understanding their body’s capabilities and limitations, actors can authentically embody diverse characters, communicate subtext, and engage the audience physically and emotionally. Essentially, it’s the tool through which actors translate their inner life into visible, compelling performance.
