The social acting processes are described usually with theatrical acting analogies. One of the most prominent examples of such practices could be mentioned E. Goffman's book "The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life". Our research purpose is the opposite: to show that theater acting is a special case of the creation life actings and application. There is no acting descended from the theater, but theater from the life performances. Acting is strictly separated from the gambling and play concepts. It is characterized by two mutually connected processes: conversion of his own to Another and Another conversion to himself (interpersonal identification). The other may be by the same actor or dramatist created. Both of them entail 1) vision, 2) the display of the image, and 3) actor hiding under your indicating personage. Anyone acting is dissemblance: but only theater demonstrate its dissemblance. Theatrical masks are nondetachable. There are dissembled without conceal, misleading and possibility to lie. Theater create the imaginary world in which may be stay spectator. It is necessary pretending too that he go in fabricate world and experiences of its significance. Thus, everything depends on the of dissemblance purpose. Acting is connected not only with primitive conversion and enchantment traditions, but also with personal self-creation processes, manifested itself in the need someone become and in need mask itself (close, hide). In this way the acting researches results the possibility of disclosure of the theater anthropological foundation and understanding productivity of theatrical images in social researches
