The space granted within the national theatre historiography to street theatre during Chile’s civic-military dictatorship is relatively limited. In addition to the inherently temporality of theatre, the urgency of its representation and the absence of theatrical venues further complicate the documentation of theatre history. Consequently, in order to construct a potential cartography of those memories, it is necessary to go back to the records and testimonies of street performan- ces between 1980 and 1990 in Chile and gain insight into the specific strategies employed in theatrical performances so to understanding the underlying motivations behind their creation.
