Abstract

The objective here is to reflect on the contributions of black Brazilian theater in the fight against racism, social exclusion, religious intolerance and the struggle for visibility. It takes as its subject the narrative of the Core Afro-Brasilian Theatre of Alagoinhas (NATA). In addition, we want to consider the possible meanings of black theater; reflecting on the historical construction of blackness in the performing arts, the ancestry within African and Afro-Brazilian in the poetic scene of theatrical making, as well as the dialogue between candomblé and theater proposed by Yakekerê and director/playwright Onisajé; considering black bodies on and off-stage and on the relationship between art and politics. The show Exu: a boca do universo is considered as a problematization of afrocentric poetic.
