Gestus

"the 'gestic' principle, that each scene is making a statement and that each figure on stage is contributing to that statement in their positioning and moves. [...] what is seen issues a specific message about the content of the scene and clarifies, as it were, the caption that might be written to define the scene's function in the play." Patterson (1994, 282)
