ALVES, Jefferson Fernandes  and  NASCIMENTO, Anna Karolina Alves do. The audio description and the theatrical mediation: the word and the play dialoguing with the scene. Revista da FAEEBA: Educação e Contemporaneidade [online]. 2018, vol.27, n.51, pp.213-231. ISSN 0104-7043.  https://doi.org/10.21879/faeeba2358-0194.2018.v27.n51.p213-231.

The present article approaches audio description as intersemiotic translation, interpreting it, from bakhtinian propositions, as a responsive standing, originator of a counterword that occupies the inbetween of the translated pieces’ sayings, above all, the theatre, guiding itself through the perspective that the spectatorial activity from the visually impaired may provoke counterimages as singular (trans)figurations from that which was witnessed. This approach through the bias of responsivity reminisce us to the mediator character of audio description in the semiotic web of senses attribution that allows us a theoretical-practical initiative of audio description articulation with the theatrical mediation, from the improvisational play. This focus is assumed by the research, that investigated the accessibility process of “De Janelas e Luas”, accomplished in the Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (PPGED/UFRN), bearing as reference the monologue performed by Mayra Montenegro, whose accessible presentation was presented to a 2nd grade state high school class, situated in the city of Natal-RN. This convergence between the audio description and the theatrical mediation assumes as perspective, the consideration of the ethical and aesthetic horizon from the spectator’s formation since the encounter, provoked by the theatrical scene, between young visually impaired and not visually impaired.

Keywords : Audio Description; Theatrical Mediation; Spectator’s Formation; Visual Impairment.
