Abstract


For this research we collected contemporary versions of the Mapuche “Kai Kai-Treng Treng” myth, with the aim of writing a theater script of the myth. Data was collected using ethnographic methods and focus on the interdisciplinary contribution of anthropology and theater to the creative cultural process of indigenous people and to the input that these disciplines can make in this way, considering the ethic responsabilities that underlie at the process of intercultural representation. The cultural elements –myths, ritual, shamanism-that were taken into consideration during data collecting and writing of the theater scrip are described and analyzed from an anthropological perspective.
