Difficulties
We are habituated to doing things mechanically – but with the smallest alteration of the body, or of the objects it encounters, everything can change. If, for example, the actor has one hand behind his back, how will he lay the table? What if he has the use of only one eye or one leg, or can hardly move from the spot, forwards or backwards, or his fingers are rigid – how will he get dressed, how will he caress a woman? All physical deficiencies or imperfections of environment produce an immediate increase of sensitivity.
