| Samenvatting: | The year 2014 reminds us the 50th anniversary of the military coup. Through the history of theatre and dramaturgical texts we know that socio-political process also began the twenty year the military dictatorship in Brazil. This period is also often famously linked to notions of repression, censorship, torture and exile of artists and intellectual people. In this paper we shall analyse three crucial events within Brazilian society, described in the following plays: “O filho cão” by Gianfrancesco Guarnieri, “O assalto” by José Vicente, and “Murro em ponta de faca” by Augusto Boal, written or staged in 1964, 1968 and 1978. The objective of our analysis is to recover a part of this period in the history of Brazil, so that history will not repeat itself. |
