DO WE STILL PLAY AS YOU PLAYED?

Abstract

In the painting Children´s Plays (Pieter Bruegel, The Elder /1525 - 1569) the renaissance artist does the inventory of eighty games. It is a model of greatest greatness since it is anchored in ancestry. The allegory, in iconic as in literary manifestations brings a big potential for the construction of metaphors in front of growing menaces that plague humanity. The approach through procedures of choral character and ludic nature can open again a powerful shed in the Pedagogy of Performance. The procedures of staging will be always new, since identities change continuously and the forms theater games take are polyphonic. The register of the staging I describe seeks to show how was the process of teaching/learning, in hope that this patrimony of oral culture will not be forgotten in the future that attends us. Keywords Pedagogy of Performance. Allegory. Theater Games.
