Start by looking at characters, real and imagined. It's the habits-the things we do over and over-that form our structure, our outlook, our 'character,' for better or worse. Your training has probably emphasized that drama is based on conflict, and that your objective - your want - must be strong, even urgent, when you walk on stage. Characters in the western dramatic tradition also reflect our cultural bias toward wanting, getting, doing more - towards addition. But the Alexander Technique is teaching you, the actor, about doing less - about subtraction. In that lively paradox lies the art of the creative performer.
