Mapping Physical Actions

THE Mapping OF PHYSICAL ACTIONS 
A series of physical actions tested in rehearsal and arranged in sequential order would trigger the necessary emotions in an actor’s performance on stage in a scene. 



Emotions are based in the unconscious (or subconscious) and can not otherwise directly come to surface when needed. They have to be brought out through indirect means. 

Hence his search for the conscious means to the unconscious’ led him to create this ‘Method of Physical Actions,’ a physical map plotted out for the actor. (scoring the script)

This ‘conscious’ physical mapping of action (blocking and staging notations in the script that an actor uses in rehearsal) would then arouse and eventually bring out the ‘unconscious’ emotions of the actor in the scene.
