Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

It can refer to several different things - like period acting (roles that take place in a different, usually earlier, era, place or culture), or stylized acting (such as the very specific styles used Restoration comedies or English drawing room comedies), or it may refer to verse acting (such as Shakespeare), or true classical acting (such as ancient Greek or Roman plays), or to the early "declaiming" acting (again, like that which was seen in actors before the 20th century when acting Shakespeare in very stiff, presentational style directly toward the audience), or to contemporary acting (such as we see today in contemporary comedy and drama where actors act "in character" and interact with each other truthfully in imaginary circumstances)!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
