Abstract
This thesis is the result of an analysis of Teatro x la Identidad (TxI). This is a movement shaped by groups of theatre-workers originated in 2001 year in Buenos Aires City, with the aim of collaborating with the cause of Grandmothers of Plaza de Mayo for the location and restitution, to the legitimate families and of the identities, of the children of missing persons who were appropriated during last Argentinian military dictatorship (1976-1983).
This research supports the hypothesis that the theater in general and TxI in particular burst, between 1997 and 2001 years, as search and diffusion institucional outstanding strategies to the service of the cause of Grandmothers. This was due to the conditions of possibility that generated a confluence of sedimentation moments practices (Perera, 2016) of Grandmothers, but also the generation of the children of missing persons, recovered grandsons/granddaughters, and brothers/sisters of appropriated and/or recovered grandsons/granddaughters -grouped in H.I.J.O.S. and Grandmothers - that were made in the public arena, since the late ‘70s and until the late ‘90s, and that involved dramatic, performative and artistic elements.
The analysis allows conclude that the aesthetic and political functionalities of TxI reside, first, to install the political and institutional cause of Grandmothers as a cause of social interest in the right to identity, to dramatically address other themes and issues in which that right is affected. Second, to introduce certain logics of the cultural industry in an independent theater project to try this specific phenomenon of politicalsocial theater has massive arrival. Third, to contribute to Grandmothers languages and aesthetic procedures that address dramatically, in a direct and realistic way, their institutional discourse to make publicly visible their cause, besides collaborating in the increase questions at the headquarters of the Association.
But also noteworthy that TxI generates, selects and stages a series of plays that attempt to put in crisis or take away from the institutional discourse of Grandmothers. However, most of these plays are not returned to stage in cycles or itinerant functions, and/or do not become the most representative productions of the founder group of Buenos Aires City. It would indicate that the group fails to complete in the aesthetic goal to introduce new senses, languages and procedures.
