This article locates the marks of a cabaretera cultural tradition in the text-performance of Astrid Hadad, a mexican contemporary cabaretera. This “tradition” represented by the cabaretera culture in Mexico would come to be reappropriated by Hadad´s reinterpretation. Using references from the imaginary about the cabaret developed by cultural politics of post-revolutionary Mexico, the performer promotes a multicultural discourse in order to denounce the subalternity practices presented in the Mexican and Latin-American historical process. From the use of the Paul Zumthor’s concept of performance in The letter and the voice, we will develop an analisis about the dialogues made by the performer. Her mise-en-scene establishes a inter/transdisciplinary dialogue among literature, cinema, circus, radio and the diva’s universe of the star system.
