Summary/Abstract: The article offers an interpretation of several recent pieces by Alejandro Ricaño and Luis Enrique Gutiérrez Ortiz Monasterio (Legom) based on the attitude of these works towards particular phenomena of the globalization era such as neo-nomadism or deterritorialization. More specifically, the study shows how the other side of the coin of these phenomena is theatricalized: the forced and even blamed localization of groups excluded from the processes of globalization. The approach is founded on the assumption that the theatre of the Fonca Generation is characterized by a political attitude based on dialogue with the audience and the presence of reality on stage.
