This research is about the Theatrical Cords - a cultural manifestation of Vila Maú, a community belonging to Marapanim-Pará. Field research was developed, in order to obtain information about the existing Theatrical Cords in the locality and verify the importance of these theatrical representations for the older residents of the Vila, identify the most recurring themes in the Cords and elucidate the importance of this cultural representation for the conservation of local memory to the younger population. To carry out this research, we made use of bibliographical studies on Oral History, Memory and Culture, which contributed to the deepening of the theme. Thus, we anchored on the theoretical assumptions of Alberti, Aragão, Caprino; Perazzo, Meihy; Holanda, Bosi, among other essential documents. From the analysis of the interviews, we found that the Theatrical Cords have great importance in the lives of these rural subjects, since, through them, they can obtain significant knowledge for community life, as well as understand the value of the different existing knowledge. In regards to the most recurrent themes in the Theatrical Cords, we found that animal themes in general are the most constant. Furthermore, we emphasize that the valorization of this cultural expression will allow young people to enjoy a lot of knowledge inherent to Theatrical Cords.
