Abstract

This article proposes a reflection around the meanings of the regionalist discourse in Para theatre in the 1960s and 1970s. These are questions and directions raised from the research project Theatre in  Belém: Poetics, Memory and Militancy (1964-1992), which aims to investigate the relationship between theatrical production in the capital of Pará state during authoritarian political regimes and in the "democratic" moments. This text starts from the Ridenti (2000; 2005) discussion on the Brazilian cultural production of these two decades in the context of the political disputes between the dictatorial state and the left-wing movement, led, mainly, by artists and intellectuals engaged in this ideology. We intend to compare the meanings of playwrights, such as Nazareno Tourinho, and groups works with what they had defined or tried to represent as Amazonian/paraense culture.
