Abstract
Throughout this paper we will analyze the deep organizations of the Latin American indigenous post-drama from an Andean point of view and not from a Western standpoint. Theoretical framework. To better understand these, we will make comparisons with the dramatic and post-dramatic architectural dispositions of the West, but only in order to highlight and make more understandable those of the indigenous post-drama. Discussion and results. Next we are going to analyze and characterize a type of (post)dramatic organization very different from the Medieval and especially from the Greek Western one; that is to say, a (post-)theatrical culture we can describe as millenary, native and autochthonous typical of (one of) the Latin American indigenisms that has never been academically studied (theatrically speaking) until the present. In order to do so, we have carefully observed for a long time the plays with the greatest indigenous influence in countries such as Ecuador, Bolivia, Peru and Colombia. We have characterized their patterns in the light of studies related to this civilization and we will hereunder reflect doctrine and praxis through a canonical play of this culture: La flor de la Chukirawa, by Patricio Vallejo Aristizábal.

“…for the Andean man every real or conceptual object has its pair, being so that the main paradigm of the Andean man is that ‘all’ or all of us have been born (Lajo plays with the terms ‘pair’ and ‘give birth’ = par-paridad-parir), that is to say, that the original cosmogonic origin is NOT the unity as in the West, but the ‘parity’.”

“…something odd does not exist because each being exists by proportionality, compensation and balance with its complementary pair (parity)”.

“…life reproduces itself… by the existence and participation of two forces (mother-father), so it does not try to annul or eliminate one of them, on the contrary, stimulates and encourages opposition …, which is what energizes and beautifies life … Life would not be prolonged if the contradiction of forces did not coexist, which are not one against the other but are interrelated in a harmonious and balanced way. Each half supports the other and intervenes in a complementary way…”

“For the Andean man the masculine-feminine is the way to materialize in the human being the COSMIC PARITY that is the paradigm of his thought and the key of the VINCULARITY that is his obligatory relation between them and with the cosmos”.
