Theatrical process – A journey of the psyche

Abstract

This article seeks to expand the theatrical phenomenon, in which, through the reading of analytical psychology, it seeks to investigate the psychic understanding in the elaboration of the subjectivity developed by the theatrical process beyond the mise-en-scène. Thus, it understands the theatrical space as a space for the coexistence of the individual with unknown parts of his personal history in consonance with a larger view of the history of his time. Among so many perspectives between theater and psyche discussed by other scholars in the past, an analytical psychology look is directed towards theatrical work, which, apart from its aches, prosceniums or any delimitations, can offer to the individual the creative contact with a new way of feeling active and belonging to his its space in society and in the world, appropriating of its own history in a symbolic retelling through the personas he wears in the continuous line of dramaturges that cross the past, the present and move towards the future in a spiral of itself.
