This book retrieves the narrative and social context of Brazilian historical performances and artistic movements to restore, with the support of a vast literature review, aesthetic analysis and the debate around engagement, the due complexity to the multifaceted concept of political theatre. Broadening the perspective, it addresses one of the most significant contemporary resonances of such an itinerary: Augusto Boal’s Theatre of the Oppressed, challenging canons of the role of performers and spectators. The research also seeks, by refusing pamphleteering or professorial responses, to shed light on the contested actuality of theatre’s social function, especially after the extreme right wave that has been testing the usefulness of traditional institutions.

The Brazilian Radical Theatre, TRB, stands for a theatrical poetics, a set of concepts and procedures which serve as references for the performer’s craft. The term radical has nothing to do with extremism nor does it stem from artistic self-sufficiency but rather derives from a deep delve into the phenomenon of theatricality. Its initial motivations have been developed since 1988 by the actor, playwright, director and professor Ricardo Guilherme.This book is the result of a completely revised and translated text published in 2014 in Brazil. It investigates the peculiar work of the performer through two plays created according to the TRB's working method: The Divine Comedy of Dante and Moacir and Bravíssimo.The technique of the radical performer is at the heart of the publication and is discussed with reference to the studies of Hans-Thies Lehmann on the Brechtian fable, Hans-Ulrich Gumbrecht on the production of presence and Nicolas Bourriaud on altermodernism.
