Description
Summary:This article examines the emphasis which, in certain contexts in the formation of actors and the practice of acting in the city of La Plata, Argentina, is placed on the centrality of the body in theatre.The purpose of this article is to examine how the centrality of body in theatre is highlighted in certain contexts of learning and practice of acting in the city of La Plata.
