This scientific work has as an objective the exploration of the symbols of a narrative cosmogony “iorubana” through theoretical and practical research in order to create a refresher through a theatrical performanceperformance. The research culminated in the writing of the dramaturgical text "Floor is Earth. Ceiling is Heaven," based on the works of Mircea Eliade, Pierre Verger, Reginaldo Prandi, Jean-Pierre Vernant and Jacques Lecoq; and hands-on labs of actions and languages research.
