Pequeno Detalhe, uma aprendiz de mundo: experiências de uma palhaça em contextos diferenciados de atuação

Abstract

ABSTRACT The present work relates the experiences of the clown Pequeno Detalhe in multiple acting contexts: schools, on the street, hospitals, bars, churches, family houses and in the theater. For this experiment, we created a specific scene named “Fazendo sumiço”, directed by the professor Ana Wuo, and took it to the spaces mentioned with a margin in improvisation. Within the practical and theoretic investigative approaches used in this work, we studied the classic writers Felini, Bergson, Castro, Masseti, Lecoq, Wuo, Larrosa and others, who developed a thematic about the clown in a historic and social context, promoting studies that lead to the comprehension of the clown etymology, as well as its origin, your transformations throughout time, and its relation with the experiences here mentioned. One significant matter is how the clown helped me understand how the frustration can happen in the learning process, how failure can be an experience of power that thrusts me, and how not being able to do a scene or theatrical exercise in any moment during graduation is a part of the learnig experience. Clown has been my way of unlearnig and learning in the word, because the clown helps us see from the other side, and in that way I can see how productive my mistake is, and how it builds my learning as an actress and a woman.
