dc.description.abstractThe chapter gives an overview of the general attitudes towards theatrical representations of homosexuality in Estado NovoPortugal. As in many other countries of the era, same-sex activity was a criminal offence, and therefore, any depiction of homosexual themes or characters on stage was prohibited according to the laws in force. The chapter discusses how censorship authorities systematically banned homosexual content and references on stage but also explores plays that dared to defy societal norms and gender conventions, intriguingly bypassing censorship. The chapter seeks to answer whether theatre practitioners included these polemical plays in their repertoire in order to bravely address homosexuality as a subject matter such as in the case of Peter Shaffer’s Five Finger Exercise in the Teatro Estúdio de Lisboa founded by lesbian couple Luzia Maria Martins and Helena Félix (1966) or the plays were stripped off their central theme so as to be approved by the censors, as it happened with Cat on a Hot Tin Roof by Tennessee Williams on the Portuguese stage in 1959.pt_PT
