| Summary: | A person exists in a certain cultural environment and is always adapting to it. The human need for movement and self-expression contributes to the development of sports, theater, dance, and pantomime. Sport allows you to develop and demonstrate the physical capabilities of a person. Dance, pantomime, and acting create artistic images that reflect the character’s nature, feelings, emotions, spiritual values, and attitude to certain personal events as well as social life.
The development of a person’s thinking process and feelings has a certain effect on their body, how they move, how they gesture, what poses they choose, etc. The forming of a theatrical image in the drama theater requires an actor to have a certain plastic culture combined with the ability to reproduce the internal psycho-emotional states of the character.
Therefore, there is a need to clarify the content and wider application of the concept of “plastic culture” in the analysis of socio-cultural phenomena, particularly, the performing arts.
The purpose of the study is to reveal the meaning of the concept of “plastic culture” in the context of acting and to identify problematic aspects regarding its application in the analysis of socio-cultural phenomena.
The methodology. The research was conducted by analyzing existing cultural and art historical terms, identifying similarities and differences between certain socio-cultural phenomena related to the field of plastic culture.
The results. The concept of “plastic culture” covers a wide range of physical and movement abilities, including not only artistic and creative activities, in particular performing arts (dance, pantomime, clowning, various types of theater, circus), but also such cultural achievements as physical culture, sports, leisure and play activities, etiquette, politics, etc. So, the concept of “plastic culture” can be defined as a sphere of physical, non-verbal, informationally significant human actions and manifestations in space and time, which are influenced by social, cultural, ethical, political, professional and psychological aspects of human life.
The scientific novelty. The article offers a substantially clarified definition of the concept of “plastic culture” in the context of acting, and outlines the characteristic features, forms of existence, and structure of plastic culture as a socio-cultural phenomenon.
The practical significance. The materials of the article can be used by culturologists and theater critics to further understand the essence, forms, and structure of plastic culture as a socio-cultural phenomenon, and to facilitate creative comprehension of the plasticity in stage performance by actors and directors.
