Abstract
This essay studies how some specific authors supported the movement building against Trujillo’s dictatorship (1930-1961) in the Dominican Republic in his last years. To do so, the plays Espigas maduras by Franklin Domínguez and Creonte by Marcio Veloz Maggiolo are thoroughly examined. Moreover, Héctor Incháustegui Cabral’s contribution to the topic is also analyzed. The unbearable power of the dictator and his opposition against freedom forces are subtly suggested in these works. The playwrights joined the alternative voices who called for a rebellion by using different dramatic tools.
