A vivência de mundos possíveis na manifestação teatral: escombros da Babilônia e Babylon Cabaret

Abstract

In the present dissertation we sought to investigate if during the theatrical manifestation there is creation of critical experience spaces that awaken in artists and spectators new perceptions about possible worlds and which aesthetic elements collaborate for this to occur. The concepts of utopia, anticamp, heterotopia and temporary autonomous zone were used to support the reflection on the critical suspension of everyday norms, which might be experienced in the theatrical manifestation. The dissertation comprised a case study of the play Escombros da Babylonia and Babylon Cabaret (2017) realized through fieldwork as observant participant of the creation process and presentations of that play, as well as a comparative study of the play Estrela ou Escombros da Babylonia (2014), both by Espaço Comum Luiz Estrela theater nucleus, a cultural occupation in Belo Horizonte/ MG.
