I have during my master been looking into finding a “greater presence” in a text based theatre rehearsal and workshop context. I have tried to look at things how they appear in front of me. A dilemma is, that when I afterwards try and look at presence, it has already gone. Therefore I used different tasks that can be recreated in order to try and catch presence again. When exploring presence in a rehearsal and workshop context, I found a few clues how to find “presence” and doing tasks in order to find a “greater presence”. These are all helpful for us actors in order to make the rehearsal and workshop space more creative. Could also be helpful in teaching acting. I did this research because in teaching acting, I believe that presence is a major component and it is important to find ways to teach it. This essay will give some clues to how one can do this.. / <p>This is work in progress. When doing artistic research, things are in constant motion. This is a glimpse of a work , captured here annd now, tomorrow it will have moved furter. This will be continued.</p>
