Abstract: Actor training involves rethinking the habits in the actor's body and mind that limit their ability to fully embody a role. In today's theatrical context, actors are increasingly confronted with situations in which the structure of the performance in which they must perform departs from the unwritten laws of the art that have orbited over the performing arts since the earliest theatrical forms. I am referring here to principles such as attention to space and partner, character relationships, etc. The new forms of theater put the actor in the position of having to act organically without the human exchange to which we have been accustomed. I thus propose a new vision of actor training through which the actor can activate the inner engine of his being, and enable him to modify it externally as well, strictly through his individual perception of the external factors surrounding him.
