Summary/Abstract: In pursuit of success. Inner and outer constraints. Of a subjective and objective nature. EMOTIONS. How can a person be understood? And how can a character be placed in the world of theatre, a character that is a person to the same extent as the actor? Only it is a different person! And how can they each be successful? The actor may use a stable and effective means of successfully approaching any character, irrespective of the literary epoch or dramatic genre to which it pertains. The performer thus avoids the danger of self- repetition with each role, or the fear of not knowing anymore what to invent for his next character, or many other dangers that might occur while creating a character onstage. The actor is basically a tool which, just like in a music ensemble, has a unique essential role but which, at the same time, depends upon the larger aggregate.
