Jean-Jacques Lemêtre e a presença da dramaturgia sonora no processo de criação do ator

Abstract

This article aims for a better historical comprehension of the relationship between music and the actor’s body as a technological ongoing form among many contemporary scenic processes. For this purpose, we highlight the work of Jean-Jacques Lemêtre in the Théâtre du Soleil as the key for the investigation about the sonority and its interaction with the (pre)scenic body. This work also highlights the idea of music as the motion architecture of a larger work of art reclaiming, at different times, the relationships between sound images and bodily images within the contemporary scene’s repertory.
