This study seeks to understand how the theatrical processes developed in the school
environment can help in the development of the aesthetic look of the participating
children, with a view to promoting new experiences, enriching their cultural repertoire
and enabling the construction of meaningful learning. Glaydson Orientando Profartes:
In this investigation, the figure of the artist-teacher emerges as the link that leads
children to a more accurate understanding of their sensibilities and knowledge. As a
mediator of this process, it is up to the theater teacher to promote situations, during the
performance of theatrical games, games, storytelling and dramatizations, in which
aesthetic approaches favor reflections on the experiences achieved by children.
Glaydson Orientando Profartes: It investigates two distinct theatrical processes: The
kidnapping of the Biscuit Princess and Tea with Clarice Lispector, shows performed in
two different schools, Escola Cenecista de Brasília and Escola Parque 308 Sul, with
children from the early years of Elementary School, in order to analyze and reflect
about how these theatrical processes stimulated the development of new experiences for
their participants and the meanings they attribute to them. The research relies on the
testimonies of two students who participated in the theatrical processes and in the
setting up of the shows, thus favoring a deeper understanding of the development of
aesthetic approaches and their reverberations. Glaydson Orientando Profartes: It seeks
to examine, through the description of theatrical processes, how theater classes can help
in the construction of new experiences, knowledge, sensibilities and meanings that
permeate the school environment and are capable of providing children with a new way
of understanding the world.
