Abstract

This article refers to the experience of Mulheres da Improvisação concerning the writing and different uses of the Livro de Dançar: Cartas para Improvisar e Compor (Dancing Book: letters to improvise and compose, 2022). Its writing was based on the connection between distinct investigative interests, and from this unfolds the multiplicity of its uses, emerging expanded and connective dramaturgies when the cards are tried (Araújo; Didonet, 2021; Vieira, 2021; Santana; Mascarenhas Et Al., 2021; Tourinho, 2021; De Laet, 2018). We discussed these developments of the Livro de Dançar on various occasions with predictable or unpredictable uses. Different formats of releases and classes in other cities and occasions triggered differences in how the book can be read and performed. We reflect on how new study interests, archives, corporealities, and technical and aesthetic repertoires are connected, through which the text becomes experience and dramaturgy expands spaces and times.
