Theme and scope

Teatro XXI magazine is an academic magazine whose purposes are: 1) to try to understand and clarify theatrical facts without hiding our aesthetic ideology, nor concealing our relations with the market, nor the conditions of production of theatrical discourse; 2) to debate the Argentine theater of today and of the past based on the understanding of what it meant and what theater means among us; and 3) end the contentist interpretation, replacing it with the parameters on theatrical theory.

In the Articles section, there are the original and unpublished theoretical works of theater researchers trained from different Argentine and foreign universities; in the Testimonies of the Argentine Theatrical Past section, important documents of our theatrical cultural heritage are brought closer to the reader; in the Theater in Argentina section, there are the academic critics of shows premiered in the semester; in the Readings section, bibliographies of the latest publications referring to research and theater activity are offered; and, finally, in the Dossier section, an unpublished text by an Argentine author is published, preceded by an interview with the author.

Its periodicity is annual.

  • The Testimonies of the Argentine Theatrical Past section considers for its publication the important documents of our theatrical cultural heritage, whether they are written documents from various sources –letters, newspaper clippings, memoirs, etc.– and visual ones –photographs–.
  • The Theater Section in Argentina considers for its publication academic criticism of Argentine shows premiered in the semester, together with images of the premiere.
  • The Readings section considers for its publication reviews of the latest published books referring to research and theatrical activity, which stand out for their contributions to the discipline. These can be published in their various formats: both paper and digital publications. It is required to attach an image of the cover of the publication.
