Abstract

This paper aims to explore the ethics of theatrical technique, τεχνη, which extends far beyond the purely technical aspects of the notion, referring instead to the essential quality attached to artistic workmanship. The correct usage of this τεχνη has ethical ramifications that involve the identification of two basic models of interpersonal, social, cultural and economic relationships: domination and collaboration. Unlike other artistic disciplines, theatrical τεχνη has proper ethical implications that stem from the fact that, on stage, the actor does not work directly for the spectator, but for his partner.
