Contributions and Times of the (Theatrical) Text

The article revisits the relationship between text and theater from the perspective of contemporary performing arts practices, and proposes, in order to understand the nuances of this relationship, the concepts of question-text, weak text, strong text, saturated text, and, finally, proposal-text.
