Intersections between nonverbal poetics
The kick-start of the workshop is the challenge of creating scenes and set-up scenarios, in dialogue with the festival’s program, by non-verbal means, based both on the guidance of Aby Cohen & Renato Bolelli Rebouças, set designers and curators of the Brazilian National Exhibition at the Prague Quadrennial 2019, as well as in the intersections between groups of participants from different backgrounds. The aim of the activity is to offer a metalinguistic approach to the breadth of theatrical language, being guided symbolically and materially by the festival’s program (ie shows, other pedagogical activities and round-tables) and answering the question: how does theater capture life and reality? The six meetings are spread over two weeks to cover the period prior to the festival and the festival days. A open presentation is scheduled on March 9th. With selection.
