ABSTRACT
I would like now to look at the difference between Stanislavski’s “method of physical actions” and Grotowski’s work on physical actions. Grotowski did not simply employ a technique created by Stanislavski, the situation is much more complex. Grotowski took “physical actions” forward from the point where Stanislavski stopped working because he died. One day, when speaking to me about his work on physical actions, Grotowski said: “It is not really Stanislavski’s ‘method of physical actions,’ but what is after.” It is rather a continuation.
