Abstract

This paper analyzes the Tanztheater proposals devised by Spanish creator Marta Carrasco, focusing on the performance of the actor/dancer from the point of view of the theories of the grotesque. This perspective allows us to talk about a grotesque acting style based on the work of the performer\'s body on stage, or bios. This style displays a series of formal characteristics that have their physical translation in the staging of Carrasco\'s creations.
