Inspirada pelas inovadoras experimentações entre as linguagens ocorridas na década de 1960, a coreógrafa Mary Overlie criou a técnica de improvisação Six Viewpoints. Anos mais tarde, essa técnica foi desenvolvida e sistematizada por Anne Bogart, diretora da SITI Company. Sua ênfase está na articulação, por parte do ator, das categorias de Tempo e Espaço como parceiros de criação. A partir do enquadramento histórico, o trabalho analisa o terreno que os pioneiros do pós-modernismo forjaram, em especial os artistas expoentes da dança da Judson Dance Theater e dos artistas minimalistas, influências radicais para o pensamento da técnica. A pesquisa também compara as diferentes abordagens entre as artistas que desenvolveram a técnica, buscando forjar uma análise crítica e abrangente dos fundamentos que regem cada uma de suas vertentes e metodologias. Além de investigar seu contexto de origem e desenvolvimento ao longo dos anos oitenta, o trabalho investiga a exploração da técnica e sua relação com a cena pós-dramática como elemento da escritura espetacular. Para tanto, analisa o processo de criação do espetáculo \"Otro\", do Coletivo Improviso, grupo que nasceu do treinamento na técnica, inicialmente coordenado por Enrique Diaz e Mariana Lima após sua estadia no Summer Course da SITI Company, em Saratoga Springs, Nova Iorque. / Inspired by the innovative experiments between artistic languages occurring in the 1960s, the choreographer Mary Overlie created an improvisation technique, Six Viewpoints. Years later, this technique was developed and systematized by Anne Bogart, director of SITI Company. The emphasis of this technique is in the simultaneous use, by the actor, of the categories of time and space as creative partners. From the historical background, this study analyzes the influence of the pioneers of postmodernism, especially the exponents artists from Judson Dance Theater and the minimalist artists. The study also compares the different approaches by these artists who developed the technique in a critical and comprehensive analysis of the fundamentals that drive each component and its methodologies. Besides investigating its source context, its development throughout the eighties, the study investigates the exploitation of the technique and its relationship with the post-dramatic scene as part of the scenic writings. As a case study, it analyzes the creating process of the play \"Otro\", by the Collective Improvisation, a group that was born from Viewpoints technical training, initially coordinated by Enrique Diaz and Marina Lima after their stay in the Summer Course of the SITI Company in Saratoga Springs, NY.

This dissertation, submitted in article format, explores how the physical movement theories of Anne Bogart's Viewpoints may lead to a liberatory setting, one which echoes the theories of Paolo Freire, for college theatre students. It examines whether Viewpoints is effective in creating a studio classroom culture and whether the Viewpoints exercises can lead to a heightened clarity in individual performance, with a much more satisfying and involved learning experience for students of the theatrical arts. In addition, this dissertation applies the theory of Mead's symbolic interactionism to the discoveries that students make while using Viewpoints exercises. Research methods include autoethnography, analysis of case studies, and examination of interview data from three college directors and thirteen student actors who have trained and used Viewpoints in rehearsal.

This research explores the application of Viewpoints and Composition training with a cast of high school students to measure changes in the social cognitive development (SCD) of individuals and the collective group. The research centers on the writing of Michael F. Mascolo and Deborah Margolis, which takes a coactive approach to the relationship between one's social cognitive development and how it is manifested in his or her actions within a social group. Using this framework, the researcher assesses the personality types within the cast and analyzes how utilizing Viewpoints training creates shifts within these personalities. The researcher approaches this study from both a theoretical standpoint as a student during a two-week intensive training course for adults with SITI Company, and a practical standpoint in the direction of a fully mounted production with high school actors. The objective of the research is to propose a method to implement advanced Viewpoints training within a high school ensemble in order to cultivate ensemble and ultimately aid the social cognitive development of the individual actors.
