Resource Title Artista-atleta : relating the routines of an athlete into the performance as an actor in the adaptation of Liza Magtoto’s Tamala
Date Issued June 2024
Abstract The creative project aims to address: how to apply the routines of an athlete into the performance of an actor through the adaptation of Liza Magtoto’s Tamala? The researcher has invested his five years of university life in two specific fields, namely –swimming and theatre. With these two disciplines having opposite traits, the researcher finds a space for its coexistence through the use of exploration in both fields. In the field of sports, he finds advantage in the physicalities needed to perform a character. On the other hand, as an actor, he is capable of embodying the character through the mental exercises required for it. There is then a fine line where these two disciplines meet for the greater good of the production. In the end, the researcher not only made use of this formed concept ‘Artista-Atleta’, but also discovered new methods of expertise to add to his learnings. These are the ‘actor-mover’ and the ‘actor-designer’ roles, which reflect the underlying capabilities the researcher did not shed much light on to begin with. As a researcher still under training, this manuscript archives a number of the capabilities that he has picked up throughout his whole life and applied into one big production —Liza Magtoto’s Tamala.
