Abstract

The affirmation of the real has been a field of debate in the theater that works with performative aspects. Among the different ways of working process with the real, there is a profusion of a type of theater called autobiographical. This theatre seems to have as impulse the elaboration of individual traumas which dialogues with matters of collective interest. This article briefly goes through the paradigms that involve the discussion of the autobiographical genre in literature and its transposition tooth theater. It proposes that the self-referential basis in autobiographical theater affirms not only by words but by the body, which is the affirmation of physical memory. The scar becomes the paradigm of a trauma suffered by the body which does not need a word as the only artistic intermediary.
