Estou seguro aqui?: aulas de teatro com homens da comunidade LGBTQIAPN+

Abstract

This research has as its theme the establishment of trust in theater classes with a group made up of men from the LGBTQIA+ community, a community that is still socially marginalized by distancing itself from the idea of heteronormativity, being oppressively and violently recognized as wrong and/or outside the norm. axle. The objective correlates the identification of which teacher's attitudes and practices enhance trust among group members. This research was linked to the discipline “Supervised Teaching Internship in Theater III - Theater Workshop”. In methodological terms, this is an exploratory research (Gil, 1991), in which the theoretical framework is supported by Boal (1988/1996), with the Theater of the Oppressed. Furthermore, to support studies on gender, sexuality and masculinity, authors such as Goldhill (2007), Miskolci (2017) and Alves (2022) are brought forward. In addition to the choice of specific practices, from Boal, belonging, the circle format, contact and movement were identified as central aspects in developing and maintaining trust. It is hoped that the insights presented in this work can instigate and encourage the reader to (re)think their way of conducting scenic practices, encouraging respect, diversity and plurality, favoring sensitive spaces that are more welcoming to LGBTQIA+ bodies.
