Abstract It's common in Theater that people reuse costumes in different production. The same occurs at Lume Teatro. This research intends to understand the creative process behind costume creation in Lume Teatro's plays. The analysis of such creative process will be focused on the concept of object biography and object agency (both from Anthropology). The anthropological approach will be used because Lume's costumes have been utilized in a variety of ways though the years, developing what can be considered a biography. The objective of this research is also to create forms of record so that others may be able to trace back the path of a costume and the creative process involved in its reutilization. The main method of research will be interviews of Lume's actors. The secondary method is photography, as means to make a permanent record of the costume, whether it will be keep or reused.At the end of the research the results will be visible thought the following items: narratives based on the interviews, photographs as permanent record of costumes, spread sheets with technical information on each costume, a guide to costume preservations and recordings and finally the dissertation as a synthesis of all the research. If Lume Teatro consents, a web diary will also be published online. (AU) | |
