What is breaking the 1st wall?

What is breaking the 1st wall? The first is the wall between the individual actor and the actor’s self-as-instrument. This is a relationship full of paradox, and so difficult to solve without falling into either self-doubt or narcissism. The second is the wall between the actor and the material, the character, the text etc.
