SUMMARY:

The present work deals with the presence of women and female characters in dramas and creative processes based on gender questions from a feminist perspective. Throughout the work, the following question is discussed: How to set up analytical strategies for drama and theatrical productions based on the deconstruction of gender as a category of analysis, especially considering how women are artistically represented? Initially, research works that approach gender inequality in different artistic languages -  notably in visual arts, cinema and theatre - are presented. Then, a brief state of the art is introduced regarding the academic productions of Brazilian researchers who address gender issues in performing arts. In addition, some artistic works and theatre groups from Salvador (Bahia-Brazil) that deal with those themes are presented. In order to develop analysis criteria for theatrical performances, the Bechdel-Wallace Test, which inspired the creation of the Faria-Vega test exercise, is contextualized and discussed. The Faria-Vega Test consists of a game-based proposition of analysis tool to be applied in dramaturgical scripts and theatrical performances, in order to contribute to the gender discussions in theater. The test was applied in written drama such as Casa de Bonecas, As Velhas, Noivas, A Mulher Como Campo de Batalha and in three selected plays, A Primeira Vista, Ânsia and Refazendo Salomé. As a result, the research proposes analytical tools that might contribute to the deconstruction of dichotomies in gender paradigms in performing arts, particularly related to how women are represented in written drama and on the stage.
