Teatro posithivo como metáfora política: “de onde vem e para onde vai Cida?”. 2017. 87f. Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Licenciatura em Teatro) - Departamento de Artes, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2017.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/38469This current work has as an object of study the performance “De onde vem e para onde vai Cida?”, which, in a first moment, was the result of the subject Encenação II, from the Theater Course of the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte. For this purpose, the political poetics of the Brechtian theater (BOAL, 2013; PEIXOTO, 1981), commonly referred as "epic theater", is approached. As well as investigating the understanding of a political body in the relation of “subject/object", both identified in the theme of the HIV virus epidemic, and in the social construction behind the Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome - Aids. This research, through the analysis of the performance, is concomitant with the "political body" and the "posithive body", metaphorized in the time/space of a social disease (SONTAG, 2007), highlighting the controversial observation of how these bodies suffer, with the representation of the disease in the society that surrounds them (ABREU, 2006; 1986). This study believes in the theater as an alternative and social response to the confrontation of the HIV epidemic, with the deconstruction of the various stigmas that revolve around it, thus joining the creative power of art to social political activism (BRECHT, 1982).openAccessteatro épico, processo de criação, metáfora, corpo posithivo, corpo político, Aids, “De onde vem e para onde vai Cida?”.epic theater, creation process, metaphor, posithive body, political body, Aids, , “De onde vem e para onde vai Cida?”.bachelorThesisArtes Cênicas, Teatro
