Abstract
El presente estudio examina la influencia del teatro comunitario en la creación de tejido social en escenarios de violencia urbana, específicamente en el barrio Santa Cruz, que se encuentra en la Comuna 2 de Medellín. La investigación, a través de un enfoque cualitativo y el modelo sociocrítico, procuró comprender la manera en que las costumbres culturales y artísticas se transforman en estrategias de resistencia, participación y transformación social en zonas que han sido afectadas por la violencia en el transcurso de la historia. Para lograrlo, se utilizaron métodos como la realización de encuestas, entrevistas semiestructuradas y un mapa social participativo, con la colaboración activa de los habitantes de la zona, los líderes y los jóvenes.
Los hallazgos demuestran que el teatro comunitario ha colaborado de manera significativa en la resignificación del territorio, la consolidación de las relaciones vecinales, la participación de los jóvenes y la recuperación de los espacios públicos. Además, se identificó su función en la reconstrucción simbólica y emocional de la comunidad, fomentando la confianza común y la convivencia pacífica. Para finalizar, el teatro comunitario se ha covertido un método efectivo para la reconstrucción social y como una herramienta pedagógica y política para edificar la paz desde los territorios.
This study examines the influence of community theater on building social cohesion in urban violence-affected areas, specifically in the Santa Cruz neighborhood, located in Commune 2 of Medellín. The research, employing a qualitative approach and a socio-critical model, sought to understand how cultural and artistic traditions transform into strategies for resistance, participation, and social transformation in areas historically affected by violence. To achieve this, methods such as surveys, semi-structured interviews, and participatory social mapping were used, with the active collaboration of local residents, community leaders, and youth. The findings demonstrate that community theater has significantly contributed to redefining the territory, strengthening neighborhood relationships, fostering youth participation, and reclaiming public spaces. Furthermore, its role in the symbolic and emotional reconstruction of the community was identified, promoting mutual trust and peaceful coexistence. In conclusion, community theatre has become an effective method for social reconstruction and a pedagogical and political tool for building peace from the ground up.
