Cena-Self: o discurso de si na criação teatral da escola

Abstract

The Self Project is to develop a practice of theatrical creation in school from autobiographies materials and “speeches himself” brought by the students. The project was carried out in the State School of Vocational Teacher César Campelo, with the participation of 2nd and 3rd year students of this institution. The creative process developed resulted in the performative installation Self, presented in the school space, building on the research of a line of more performative creation interbreeding languages of theater and performance. From games, laboratories, construction of scenes and interviews the students were encouraged to think through the space of the “autobiographies”, what kinds of perceptions each student had about himself and about the construction of history itself, which draw from their experiences and how was this process relationship between life and art, to translate their experiences / speeches to the scene. This research, therefore, arises from the need of the movement of invention and reinvention of the subject of discourse, as regards the forms of coercion and social regulation, and how these can be problematized, from sensitive aspects, the scenic area. The institution school, project development place is questioned in the sense that often have the power to act directly on the conduct of individuals, limited in many cases, the moments of subjectivity in favor of a technical view of teaching. This research seeks to instigate a reformulation of the preformatted ideas about who is the subject, starting from little places accessed or recovered related to the forms and exercises of their singularities. From the fertile ground of life stories, the experiential and sensory experiences of you, the student has been able to create other discourses and new perceptions of life and art with the theater as a space that stimulated these subjective and aesthetic considerations.
