O treinamento corpo-mente - Reflexões entre princípios técnicos de Decroux e Meierhold nos processos de preparação e criação do artista da cena

Abstract

The research uses as support some Biomechanics exercises developed by Meierhold and Dramatic Body Mime created by Decroux, in the search for a body-mind training as a continuous practice of individual and collective care of the performing artist. The development of the research was based on practical research supported by the theoretical framework. The practical verification group composed of artists aimed to experience, share and analyze the body-mind training process with a view to practical experience. Throughout the text, some studies are described that were developed in these moments of experimentation and research with the group, seeking a better understanding of the development and applicability, which makes the creative process personal and alive. In the appendix, two processes are shared with artists who report how training becomes a support in the creative process of theatrical productions: Mirrors and Marilu, the story of an ant. Description of exercises, study proposals, notes, interviews and images complement the writing of this dissertation, aiming to expand the description of this study.
