No. 19 (2016): Mujeres desde la tramoya: artes escénicas y género

Women in the performing arts have been present almost and exclusively in the role of actresses. Their contribution to other areas has been systematically ignored and made invisible (authors, choreographers, directors, stage hands, costume designers, etc.). This issue aims to analyze the gender gap in this sector and to publicize female figures behind the scenes. Throughout history, the presence of women has been much lower than that of men in the creative process of the performing arts and at present the participation of women in the theater is still far from what would be desirable in terms of parity and equality.
