Studio versus Stage

I find a humongous and very distinct difference between working in the studio and performing on stage.

My performing in the studio is mainly about maintaining know skills and techniques, and experimenting, exploring, working on finding new ways to perform/act according to needs and intents.

Example:

I really want to be able to juggle more with words and ways of saying things, how can I train that, where could I get inspired?
Or in performing this didn´t really work how can I find ways to make it work?

These are questions I like to ask and find solutions to in the studio.

Being on the stage is about something quite different; on stage, my performance has another purpose.

My purpose of appearing on the stage is to use all the techniques and skills I have found and practised in the studio to tell relevant stories.

That might be a horrible story about trafficking or a sentimental romance between two lonely cows.
