The Improper - (tryout)
A man
looking for the right to live his humanity, who wishes to give life back
to his community, who fights for the right to his roots to prevail.
Where he comes from!
He wants to go deep inside the real world
questions where he lives and refuses to accept common and regular ideas
and attitudes that are given as normal for general.
He
watches what´s he is living in a historical moment where many faces of
our society found their selves unbalanced, political, social,
economical and environmental matters. A country that is ruled by huge
companies, noticed by his prejudgment against black people, the poor,
the homosexual and the woman.
In his isolation time, in the
middle of a hydric,political,economical crisis and his own human crisis,
he abandon all of his family, friends, beloved ones and try to live and
fight in a parallel world, bringing up all of his questions and
memories and finally the big decision : To sleep or to dream?
The
research of the artist becomes already with artist point of view of
social problems of his country, the body movement comes from a quiet and
peaceful place, nice and slow movements, to more quickly and impulsive
movements. He tries to achieve a dance with flow working all of his
body, transforming it into a choreography, inspired by dramaturgy e in a
poem (Poema em Linha Reta” ,“Poem in a straight line”* written by
Fernando Pessoa – Writer and Philosopher
This research piece tries in a poetic manner, show, through the body movement and acting scenes, how this improper man lives.
