Interview examines how actress Roberta Carreri integrates stage training with personal growth, suggesting a holistic approach.
This interview with Roberta Carreri, former actress of Odin Teatret/Nordic Theatre Laboratory, explores the interplay between professional actor training and personal life. The conversation traces Carreri’s journey from her initial fascination with theatre and dance to five decades of rigorous body-based practice. She reflects on the transformative power of physical training, intercultural techniques, and lifelong artistic discipline—framing them as both professional necessity and a form of self-cultivation. Key themes include embodied awareness, freedom through mastery of technique, and the integration of artistic inspiration into everyday life. Carreri’s experiences reveal how somatic practices shape identity, resilience, and a philosophy of living, culminating in an acceptance of aging and mortality as part of a fulfilled existence.
