Theatrical practices and school reading practices

Abstract

This project aims to investigate practices of reading performed by some theater groups, contemplated by the Law of the Theatre Development (SP), which have as the heart or as an interest underlying the developed research, a work with young people. Whereas the actions on those groups present emphasis on process which, in turn, involves reading and researching of important issues to the artists in their creations, it is aimed to reflect upon the possible existence of a concept or idea of training. From the observation of the research processes and its scenic unfolding, the collection of information about the readings performed collectively, we intend to explore whether there is a effective teaching dimension which is based on these shared works between artists and young people and how it happens.
