Diseño de una propuesta escénica multidisciplinaria sobre la vivencia y la resistencia de la cultura Waorani ante la amenaza extractivista

Abstract

Abstract:The design of a multidisciplinary stage proposal constitutes the central focus of this research, developed with the purpose of communicating and raising awareness about the human, cultural, and territorial consequences of extractivism in the Ecuador Amazon, taking as a reference point the resistance of the Waorani people through their proposal entitled Where There Was Land Before . The study was developed using a qualitative approach justified by a research-creation methodology, articulating documentary research, a territorial approach to the Dayuno community, and processes of stage experimentation that informed the dramaturgical, aesthetic, and directorial decisions. As a result, the stage proposal was designed, consisting of the dramaturgy, the directorial concept, the aesthetic-stylistic proposal, and the design of the technical resources. Validation was carried out through an open trial of the proposal's constituent elements, observed by four experts who evaluated the design's suitability using qualitative rubrics. Following the trial, a collective feedback session was held. The results of the open trial indicated that the design constitutes a coherent and communicative system, with opportunities for strengthening the integration of performance languages. It is concluded that the design presents favorable conditions for functioning as a tool for raising awareness about extractivism.
