My name is Juliana Spadotto and I am from Brazil. After having graduated in Artistic Education with a degree in Performing Arts, I worked for several years as an actress, director and drama teacher in Brazil. Recently I attained an MPhil in Education (Arts, Creativity and Education) at the University of Cambridge. My research focuses on theatre as a tool for social transformation. To illustrate my research I looked at a collective theatre group in Brazil that works in an underprivileged peripheral area of the biggest capital of the country. I am interested in political theatre that challenges the status quo in society bringing awareness to the participants and the audience. My passion is teaching, learning, acting and I have also fallen in love with rowing since I first arrived in Cambridge.
I have just finished an MPhil in Education (Arts, Creativity and Education) at the University of Cambridge. My research focuses on theatre as a tool for social transformation. I have a particular interest in education, applied theatre and social justice. In this way, I support a socially and politically engaged approach to applied theatre that challenges the status quo in society, bringing social awareness to the participants and the audience.
