This work aims to analyze the representation of the black woman from the works Sortilégio I - Black Mystery (1951) and Sortilégio II - Black Mystery by Zumbi Redivivo (1976/77), written and rewritten by Abdias do Nascimento in the bulge of the Experimental Theater of Black. We will focus in particular on issues concerning female characters (Iphigenia, the Yalorixás and the women's choir). It permeates issues of black feminism and its intersectionalities, the religiosity transposed to theatrical discourse, the affection of the black woman and the place of speech of these women in the national theater. In order to think about its implications in the modern and contemporary theater and to observe how the scene can collaborate to cast another look on its images, from the changes from one work to another, as in the path of the more forceful ifigenia character - even inside. of a controversial stereotype. The research unfolded from a literature review, aiming to point to certain modalities of representation of black women that present themselves as dominant stereotypes, in order to rethink processes of dehumanization lived especially by black women, and point out emancipatory ways that can reveal their subjectivities through the scene.
