Um olhar sobre “Água Suja” e o “Moleque”: tradição, fé, cultura e teatralidade

This thesis addresses two spectacles: “Moleque tão Grande Otelo” and “Água Suja”, in which both have had my participation as producer and actress. The spectacle “Moleque tão Grande Otelo” reveals the racial-ethnic questions that surrounds the play and permeates the artist’s life whose name is the same. The play deals how the actor Grande Otelo life events’ had implied in his art, the facts that marked his career and they are shown at the spectacle, the reason why to articulate: art, life, fantasy and reality. Aiming to unveil the actor, I refer it to my history as an actress and the roots’ similarity to Sebastião Bernardes de Souza Prata, who became Grande Otelo to the world. In the staging of “Água Suja”, we also expose familial and religious memories and experiences of a people that overflow faith in a real spectacle, which takes place every year, in August, in our region, more specifically in Romaria – MG. While creating “Água Suja”, we experienced the act of keeping a promise and believing in the saint’s miracle, thus this experience is told in the spectacle and investigated in this study.
