Box of Memories: autobiographical fragments of a journey in the theater
Memory, Group Theater, Autobiography.
This dissertation is the result of autobiographical research. The main objective of the investigation was to recall the experiences of the artist-researcher which, in some way, had an impact on his theatrical work. In this sense, the focus of the investigation is a set of memories of theatrical learning that took place from childhood to the present day. The study addresses concepts such as the playing body, group theater pedagogy and the social role of the theatrical phenomenon and the artist, illuminating the intersections between tradition, memory and artistic creation. The organization of memories, due to the fluidity that this concept intrinsically carries, was done in fragments of fabrication, as a reinvention of lived experiences. The dissertation is not read chronologically and each fragment can be read in the order of the reader's choice.
