Abstract

This study identifies and analyzes the scenic action [des]velhecer, of the Coletivo Rubro Obsceno, in the city of São Paulo. Considering the analysis and cartography of this action—which launches political positions in the construction of scenic poetics, and whose premises revolve around making the subjectivities of 60-year-old, and older, women visible—we emphasize the importance of critical reflection from the artistic-making itself. Considering this, we are inspired by Tellas, Diéguez, Beauvoir, among others. We share the experience of creation as artists of performing arts and, above all, we identify the reasons why it is still necessary to promote feminist activism.

Keywords: Feminist activism, Women’s theater, Social action.
