Abstract
With acknowledgement of Nicaraguan Theatre and its different dynamics, this research works to expose and create visibility of current Nicaraguan Theatre with relation to social change in Managua, Nicaragua. The microcosm of theatre is revolutionary in creating the necessary change to reach a state of consciousness that allows others to accept and understand society and others for what they are and what they can be. The theater is simply a tool. Intrinsically, all acts are political, therefore the theater is a political declaration. The theater is, and always will be, a political arena, when the aesthetics of the theater are continuously transforming.

Con el reconocimiento del Teatro Nicaragüense y sus diferentes dinámicas, esta investigación trabaja para exponer y crear visibilidad al Teatro Nicaragüense actual en relación con el cambio social en Managua, Nicaragua. Los microcosmos del teatro son revolucionarios a crear el cambio necesario para alcanzar un estado de conciencia que permite a los demás aceptar y comprender a la sociedad y los demás por lo que son y lo que pueden ser. El teatro es simplemente una herramienta. Intrínsecamente, todos los actos son políticos, por lo tanto, el teatro es una declaración política. El teatro es, y siempre será, una arena política, ya que la estética del teatro se transforma continuamente.
