Theater games and improvisation: for a philosophical education in childhood

This article seeks to show, from an exploratory study, possible interfaces between philosophy and theater. It defends the need to provide children with their own space of expression as a "place of speech", thus breaking the condition of infant - without speech. Philosophy is understood as praxis, which starts from the recognition of the subject's needs (Hwttwe, 1983). Combining the practice of theater games and improvisation based on Viola Spolin's theory (2010) and Walter Benjamin's reflections (2009), he concludes that this intertwining makes it possible to conduct the educational process in order to guarantee children the realization of childhood.
