Resumo: The present work, supported by the possible interlocutions between History and Theater, aims to investigate the narrative built by part of the theater critics about the director Gerald Thomas from the reception of the set of plays Kafka's Trilogy – A Process, A Methamorphosis and Prague, staged in 1988 in São Paulo. By understanding the interpretations of the theater critics as fundamental to the writing of the History of Brazilian Theater, we find in this documentation evidences of a yearning for reformulating in the theater in the context of redemocratization. It has been verified that the narratives constructed in the Brazilian theater scene during the decade of the 1980s, transit between considering as overcome the themes of political theater and identifying, inthe multiple proposals resulting from this process, a sign of crisis. In this scenario Gerald Thomas presents himself as an artist who, in theory, updated theater made in Brazil by being endorsed by groups who wanted to emphasize the rupture, in several aspects, with the Miliatry Dictatorship period.
