Resumo:
The purpose of this dissertation is to analyze the action of theatrical artists, theatricals and theater directors during the repression and censorship during the period of the military dictatorship in Campina Grande / PB between 1970 and 1985. It was necessary, through interviews, to explore the Space of memories and speeches of the artists who participated in the achievements of the city festivals. Together with journalistic sources, among them: Diário da Borborema, Jornal da Paraíba and Jornal O Norte, we tried to construct a narrative about the accomplishment of the National Amateur Theater Festival (FENAT), the Winter Festival and the Theater Festivals in Districts, these events were responsible for the intense artistic movement of Campinense. Starting from this point, we problematize the official memory told by a group of people linked to the local political elite who were at the forefront of the organization of these events. Finally, we try to analyze some plays that have passed through the censorship screen, this allowed the understanding of the artistic universe before censorship and repression of the dictatorship. All this work on this theatrical moment in the city was possible with appropriate theoretical methodological appropriations of Oral History, analysis of journalistic sources, bibliographical research, sources of personal collection and donations of materials of people interested in the history of the theater in the city.
