(Un)Thinking Actor
Vokůrka, Richard ; MAKONJ, Karel (advisor) ; TEJNOROVÁ, Petra (referee)
This thesis is concerned with author's acting experiences.
The aim is not to create a generally valid analysis but to give a personal statement, which is perceived in a broader context.
The author basses this on the fact that he is a Thinking Actor who is constantly searching for his limits. He deals with the advantages and disadvantages of this regarding himself.
The chapters are focused on different qualities which are essential for fine acting and the author compares these qualities with his mentioned abilities.
Special attention has been paid to naturalness, truthfulness and the authenticity of acting.

Pretence
Hába, Michal ; KROBOT, Miroslav (advisor) ; MIKEŠ, Vladimír (referee)
The thesis treats the phenomenon of pretence in the theatre. It deals with the meaning of contemporary theatre and its truthfulness, and the issue of acting/performing and the related themes of authenticity, (self)disclosure, detachment and communication. It also focuses, from the same viewpoint, on the "actors education" and the definition of the "alternative theatre". The principles of the theatre of no-pretence and esthetics of "theatrical dementia" are defined by examples of specific stage productions.

Authorial Acting and its changes during the therapy of addicts
Křesadlová, Václava ; HANČIL, Jan (advisor) ; CHRZ, Vladimír (referee)
In my dissertation, I try to reflect my own experiences with application of authorial approach to acting in therapeutic community for drug addicts. I work as a therapist for twelve years in therapeutic community Magdaléna. I guarantee nonverbal technique program and I lead a theatre project once a year periodically.My dissertation is divided to two main parts. First I focus on questions about authorial acting and its pedagogics. I try to explain specifics that are brought by authorial approach to acting. I also describe acting with the inner partner and drama propaedeutic based on free playing and collective improvisation. These dramatic experiments help participants during their own building of psychosomatic condition, which is core of studies on Authorial acting and pedagogics department, DAMU in Prague.Second part of my dissertation is dedicated to my own work with drug addicts. I try to describe problems of therapy in community, especially the questions connected with dramatic expression of the clients. As I told before, I lead nonverbal technique program in Magdaléna community and I created my own conception of such program and it is described enough in my dissertation. I also try to explain drama projects preparations in community and show such cooperation in eleven specific performances we did with different clients during the time.Finally, I reflect relationship between authorial acting and psychotherapy. I perceive the ability to act creatively in direct contact with the others as the most important thing in both cases. That is why I demur at the question of a self-experience in therapy and psychosomatic condition in authorial acting and their mutual relationship.

Play
Konvalinka, Jiří ; KROBOT, Miroslav (advisor) ; BEČKA, Marek (referee)
The PLAY is not a game. The PLAY overreaches and connects all aspects of
all games if possible. The PLAY as phenomenon is existential issue that accompany
mankind from its beginnings. Similar to work, fight, love and death (mortality), the
PLAY shows men the condition or the frame of their existence. The PLAY is a
principle.
In this work, i will try to explore the PLAY and its relationship with acting and
my acting studies. Also I will explore my acting studies and possibilities of use of
experience I gained in the relationship with the PLAY and altogether the relationship
between the PLAY and the world itself.
