Abstract: Inside or outside or inside and outside are just milestones on the long road to discovering and embodying otherness. Whether we discuss the art of living, a concept elaborated by Konstantin Sergheevici Stanislavski, which proposes conscious creation through the manipulation of the subconscious, or we direct our research towards the discovery of the psychological gesture, a process developed by Michael Cehov, we come to the conclusion that the means and principles that have passed the test time and imposed themselves in the actor's work, directed towards the embodiment of alterity, are indisputable landmarks that contribute to the formation of the theater artist. The artist's product, the character, is nothing but a free creation that expresses individuality. Identity, otherness, body, emotion, word are means of artistic expression that each actor capitalizes on according to his creative potential. Nothing is denied, everything is allowed within the limits imposed by the stage situation and the character under study. The inner-outer balance opens the way to meeting the universal and the great creation.
