Physical training within the discipline "Plastic education"
The author demonstrates that plastic education (if we do not mean the name of the discipline, but the term that is very popular in the professional circle of teachers) is an abbreviated term that means “education of the plastic culture of actors”. Actor's plastic culture is the level of professional skill in the field of stage plastic; in this case, stage plastics mean the external, physical (bodily) side of stage action, understood in general as a single psychophysical process. In practice, the plastic culture of an actor is expressed in the ability, readiness and need to realize stage action in a figurative, artistically significant plastic form. If we are talking about plastic education as a discipline in an educational institution, the content of this discipline is quite extensive; it has many sections aimed at acquiring the necessary knowledge, skills and abilities by the future actor, as well as developing certain abilities and qualities necessary for working in acting profession. In this work, I will consider in detail physical training as one of the most important and basic section of the discipline "Plastic Education". The article shows the role of physical training in the plastic education of an actor.
