dc.description.abstractThe subsequent document examines the vibratory connection that can be shared between an actor and an audience and uses the role of Uncle, in Suzan-Lori Parks’ Venus, as a practical case in which to examine and reflect on this area of research. This document investigates what is meant by a “vibratory connection,” and how increased vibration enhances the sensate experience both for the sender and receiver. The paper will analyze methods of reducing vibration-dampening tensions, increasing resonating chambers of the oral and nasal cavities, and enhancing the con- nection between an actor and a live audience. The ultimate goal is to develop a practice indepen- dent of a rehearsal process that increases the vibrational capacity of an actor.
