A receita: pisando alho no teatro negro com mulheres negras

Abstract

This dissertation, written in the first person, takes on the characteristics of performative f(r)ictional writing (Lyra, 2020), enabling the exercise of crossroads (Martins, 1997) between: the cycle of domestic violence that occurred in my family life; The performative soil entitled A Receita (Santos, 2010), which addresses the vulnerable situation of a black woman in a state of revolt against structural machismo and aspects of the Purple Hibiscus (Adichie, 2011). The f(r)iction (Lyra, 2011; 2015) between the life that experienced violence and the works that portray violence, combined with Spiral Time (Martins, 2021), brings these strands closer to mirroring that create the atmosphere of the experience of the past, present and future simultaneously, while also sustaining our stories for ourselves, as in an aquilombamento (Nascimento, 1985; Dias, 2022). Methodologically, the research will start from reflections on black theater (Lima, 2011), (Barbosa, 2021) and black feminisms (hooks, 2013; Gonzalez, 1979; 1984; 2018; Collins, 2017; Carneiro, 2003). As well as, by way of practice, will articulate presentations of the show A Receita in the composition of the Performic Research (Fernandes, 2014), with the workshop entitled by Pisando o Alho carried out for black women in the metropolitan region of Recife. These articulated actions aim to open the way for reflections on how black theater based on a poetics of the body and ancestry (Santos, 2015) can counteract violence by providing stimulation of the social healing of black women.
