We often see people at the traffic lights in many Brazilian cities - cleaning car windows, begging or selling food, newspapers, magazines, etc. - recreating the street for different purposes. - recreating the street for different purposes. They are stimulated by their personal motivations and by the passers-by who, many times, become their eventual clients. Among these people are the jugglers who take circus practices to the traffic lights. Based on ethnographic experiences carried out in the Amazon in 2017, this article discusses the triad of being, being and doing in the street, with emphasis on (i) the conceptions that these people have about the activities developed in public places, and (ii) the consequences and peculiarities of making the street a circus stage. |

Las calles son puntos de encuentro. En varias ciudades brasileñas vemos a menudo a personas en los semáforos -limpiando los cristales de los coches, pidiendo o vendiendo comida, periódicos, revistas, etc.- recreando la calle con distintos fines. -, recreando la calle con distintos fines. Son estimulados por sus motivaciones personales y por los transeúntes que, en innumerables ocasiones, se convierten en sus eventuales clientes. Entre estas personas hay malabaristas que llevan las prácticas circenses a los semáforos. A partir de experiencias etnográficas realizadas en la Amazonía en 2017, este artículo discute la tríada ser, estar y hacer en la calle, con énfasis (i) en las concepciones que estas personas tienen sobre las actividades desarrolladas en los lugares públicos, y (ii) en las consecuencias y peculiaridades de hacer de la calle un escenario circense. As ruas são pontos de encontro. Frequentemente avistamos pessoas nos semáforos de várias cidades brasileiras – limpando vidros de automóveis, pedindo ou vendendo alimentos, jornais, revistas etc. –, recriando a rua com fins diversos. São estimuladas por suas motivações pessoais e pelos transeuntes que, inúmeras vezes, tornam-se seus eventuais clientes. Dentre essas pessoas, estão as/os malabaristas que levam práticas circenses para os semáforos. A partir de vivências etnográficas realizadas na Amazônia em 2017, esse artigo discute a tríade ser, estar e fazer na rua, com ênfase (i) nas concepções que essas pessoas possuem acerca das atividades desenvolvidas em locais públicos, e (ii) nas consequências e peculiaridades de fazer da rua um palco circense.
