This study is based on the neutral mask studies that have great significance within the acting studies of Jacques Copeau and Jacques Lecoq, who pursued physical theater studies in the 20th century European theater. The aim is to offer a reading on the possibilities that the concept “neutral” opens up for the actor. The possibilities that the search for the neutral implies for the actor will be explored as a ground without any identity or belonging -i.e., an interspace toward differentiation, transformation, taking shape, and character and role building - by approaching the term “neutral” with the active mimesis and passive mimesis of Philippe Lacoue-Labarthe. Further, by highlighting the relation as well between neutrality - as an inter-space without any identity or belonging - and comedy, the comedy potential that the act of taking theatrical form and disguise holds will be explored along with the concepts of “duality” and “playfulness.”
