Argentina is internationally known for its theater tradition and for its excellent playwrites.  New works coming out of Argentina deserve access to a larger public, an international public. With this publication, we hope to increase scholarly interest in Latin American Theater, particularly Argentine Theater, in the United States, and uin Latin America.
