Publisher's Synopsis
The investigation into the actor's poetic vocality stems from the researcher's own experience during his academic training in acting and theatre direction. Starting from the body registers based on the principles of comedy and the study of the role of the director, we seek an interrelationship between comedy and the central focus of the research, the actor's vocality, with the aim of analysing the result of this relationship. To this end, the lived experiences and inscriptions on the body, based on Jorge Larrosa Bondía, and Cecília Almeida Salles' concept of an open, living, mutable work in constant movement, embody and problematise the investigation into the physical and vocal actions generated in the creation process and selected during its execution by the actor-director.
