Poéticas do afeto no teatro de grupo: trânsitos e alianças entre os criadores no teatro de Belém do Pará (1976-2016)

Abstract

This work presents a study on eight theater groups from Belém do Pará, through their directors and creative cores, with the perspective of identifying how the transit of creators and the alliances between them contributed to the outlining of the poetics of these collectives. The concept of affection triggers the proposition of the body-group, from Espinosa and Deleuze, as a possibility for cartography of the groups and their singular composition plans; multiple body, populated with intensities and flows of force, and determined by the pace of interactions between creators. From the encounters, affections arise that can build artistic partnerships that mix with life partnerships, and movements of territorialization and reterritorialization are triggered by love, friendship and / or intellectual identification, among others, aligned to the craft of theater. From interviews with directors and actors, and also from academic works produced by some of them, I intend to highlight influences and dialogues that show a powerful network of affections. In addition, I seek to understand the senses triggered by the collective assemblages present in the theatrical event, which has the basis of the production of a poetics, according to Jorge Dubatti. The thesis dialogues with the fields of theatrical philosophy, theater history and theatrical studies, and has, in the thought of the stage directors and members of the groups about their praxis, a reference of first magnitude.
