Abstract:
This study reflects on the potential of a feminist methodology based on the immersion in a creative process related to the theatre play Gender. The oppressor would not be so strong if he did not have accomplices among the oppressed by Pandora Colectivo Teatral, based in Chile. For this purpose, I characterize patriarchy as a knowledge-production force that structures social relations and every aspect of life. I draw on insights from different feminist traditions emerging from epistemological and methodological dimensions, and I reflect on how the theatrical work of Colectivo Pandora articulates a methodology with feminist principles, and what are its potentialities. Our struggles as women in the world require us to subvert the normative limits of patriarchal knowledge construction and recognize, value, and promote practices that allow us to rethink knowledge beyond academic boundaries.
