Acting and Science: A Correlation


Acting/the work of an actor or actress, which is a person in the theater, television, film, or any of the storytelling mediums who tells the story by portraying a character and usually speaking or singing the written text or play.

Science/a systematic enterprise of gathering knowledge about nature and organizing and condensing that knowledge into testable laws and theories.

As a teacher and actor, I never once thought of the correlations between acting and science until this institute.  I know that acting is a form of communication as is all of the theater arts, but having gone down this inquiry based road for the past three weeks, I'm seeing things in a different light.  Communication stems from many things.

Cleats' Introdcution

My name is Cleat Dobbins and this is my third institute at Bryn Mawr.  I teach Drama at The Spring School of the Arts in Philadelphia.  I also teach adults affiliated with The Spring School.  The Arts have been part of my life for as long as I can remember and I feel very strongly about it's effects on children and our culture as a whole.  Children in all schools should be exposed to the Arts in order to get a sense of how the Arts can and do effect the lives of all human beings in a positive  way.
