THE ART OF SOCIODRAMA: BIBLIOGRAPHICAL REVIEW FOR CULTURAL ACTION

Abstract

This work intends to develop basic principles for the application of sociodrama to education and the arts with a view to cultural action. These principles were divided into: 1) The roots of the Spontaneous theater (by Moreno and Aguiar) and the Oppressed (by Boal); 2) The context of contemporary art where the spectator becomes the actor in the show, in a demonstration of popular art; 3) The construction of knowledge through reflection and dramatic experience, enabling a cultural transformation. These principles make up a proposal for a cultural action script, and sociodrama is an important method to be considered in transformative, educational or cultural actions.
