| Description | Thus far, this book has been concerned with providing a detailed analysis of Neilson's authorial and directorial processes and of the unconventional ways in which he uses improvisation during the Narrative rehearsals. Throughout each chapter I have continually referenced actors and acting in terms of how both interrelate to the thematic strands of investigation contained therein. However, what has been absent thus far is an investigation that is more focused on the actor's process and the acting. In order to address this gap, the emphasis of this chapter will be on providing an account of events from the perspective of the actor. The chapter will expand upon threads of discussion touched on in previous chapters, such as: the importance of working conditions for actors and how this reality impacts on their agency; how the actor's process may or may not be complemented and supported by Neilson's process; the ways in which Neilson's direction is actor-centric; and how Neilson's approach does not take sufficient account of the actor's process.
