Reflejos de la educación de la niña-adulta en el teatro contemporáneo: Frágil, del Teatro de los Andes (Bolivia)

This article is based on the analysis of an emblematic work in the representation of the girl in contemporary Latin American dramaturgy: Fragil, from the Teatro de los Andes (Bolivia). The aim is to reveal the socio-cultural paradigm reflected in the confessional language of the protagonist, in relation to the studies of female identity. An intertextual analysis is carried out, examining the intertexts of the piece (Paola Masino, Boris Vian), and a semiological analysis, recognizing in the dialogues of the protagonist the construction of the genre. The text perceives how the denied sensibility, and the symbology attributed to the transition between girl and adult woman - related to madness or hysteria - is born as a consequence of a castrating education. The materialization and abjection attributed to the condition of woman is discovered (Kristeva, 1967; Butler, 1993). A marginal discourse is erected: the voice of the adult-girl who speaks of the weight of a repressed inheritance.
