"O chão em que o ator deve pisar"

The work is an analysis of William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet production by theater group Galpão (MG) directed by Gabriel Villela. Taken into consideration the set design and scenic space, the work carries out an investigation of the relations among the scenic elements as well as between the scenic space and the acting -the way in which the choice of some scenic elements interfere in the actors' game, in the building up of the scene and characters as well as in the interaction with the audience. Starting out from a decomposition of the production, through the selection and analysis of photographs of the group's presentations, the work seeks to investigate the different references used in the set design of the production and the way in which the solutions used by the group, by the director/set designer Gabriel Villela and by those derived from Shakespeare's text interact in the creation of the scenic space.
