Abstract

The purpose of this article is to present reflections that seek to system Black- Brazilian principles of dramatic performance and staging. The studies presented aim to demonstrate the need for theoretical-practical thinking in the performing arts focused on an anti-colonial perspective, as opposed to a hegemonic Euro-referenced vision. Thus, the concept of dramaturgy is problematized as part of a colonial device to control subjectivities. The theoretical-practical studies and the underlying arguments of this text were systematized with a basis in counter-hegemonic scenic experiments investigated in workshops, courses, and classes in which creative processes were developed, which do not separate the languages of dance, theater and performance.
