SUMMARY:

This dancer-research study constructs a dialogue to reflect on the contemporary ballroom dance scenery. It is based on the shows Por um fio, 1717, E vê que ele mesmo era..., and Me brega, baile!, in continuously rhizomatic processes of a plural and cartographic regard to the ballroom dance scene. First, I reflect on what traditional ballroom dance is, what its traditions and customs are. I bring about voices and listen to them with my words, so that I can arrive somewhere, or multiple places: A journey with an outlined destination to the contemporary in the scenery, but with no expected arrival. This research study is based on cartography as a route to a method of monitoring processes, outlining lines, mapping territories and allowing escape routes. Everything is involved in the invention not only of the dance shows aforementioned, but also in the entanglement of my own research. The objective is to look at political bodies in contemporary ballroom dance performances. Through image and movement analysis, I investigate the construction of texts performed by two in the transposition of these narratives. The territories and routes glimpsed by me are relative to my cartographic experience; therefore, as specific objectives I map which traditions make up ballroom dance and establish themselves as a political place of the body in power relations; I outline the contemporary trajectory of the ballroom dance scenery, from images and movement to choreographic language; I follow the dramaturgical movements of political bodies in the production of texts performed by two; and finally, I draw a horizon of thought (in becoming) in contemporary scenic ballroom dance. The central problem of this research is to unveil how political bodies produce texts performed by two for choreographic language in contemporary ballroom dance performances; how the images of the analyzed shows reveal a discontinuous dramaturgy of dance patterns and how contemporary ballroom dancing involves restlessness and transgression to trace body-textualized movements on stage.
