Abstract

El teatro nativo-americano contemporáneo contiene una larga lista de obras que normalmente incluyen personajes indígenas y mestizos que a menudo viven entre dos mundos, es decir, la cultura nativa y la sociedad blanca americana. Por ello, suelen surgir enfrentamientos y conflictos entre ambas culturas, que normalmente se resuelven al final de las obras con la reconciliación o síntesis de los personajes entre su herencia cultural nativa y la sociedad blanca dominante. Así, los indígenas pueden asegurar su existencia y supervivencia cultural nativa al mismo tiempo que se adaptan a los cambios y costumbres que requiere la sociedad blanca americana.
