The Paradox of Beheading Risk: Specifically Clear and Sublimely Chaotic

In this paper, I will investigate repetition and accuracy in the simplicity and complexity of the following thesis roles: Tour Guide, Aunt, Female Doctor, and Attendant #2 performed in Middletown by Will Eno. I will develop my own actor process which will facilitate a greater sense of clarity, embodiment, and authenticity. With an end goal of identifying an effective approach for both artistic and pedagogical application. The following specific methods that I have performed and studied will be applied: Authentic Movement, Syntonics, Laban/Bartenieff Movement, and Coordination Patterns. I will examine body, mind, and spirit through concepts of authenticity, clarity and embodiment (ACE).
