At the Panamanian Theater Festival organized by the Ministry of Culture (MiCultura), a digital playaturgospanama.com. platform was released on September 13 and will be a tool to publicize the works of Panamanian playaturgs and that they can be exhibited at national and international stage.

Dramaturgospanama.com is an initiative of the writer and playwright, Manuel Paz, as a window for performing arts professionals dedicated to playwright and can somehow market and circulate their works with companies, associations or theatrical organisations interested in setting up their stories at a stage both inside and outside the country.

In this respect, Manuel Paz, winner of the National Prize of Literature Ricardo Miró in 2017, in the Teatro Section, explained that this is a friendly page that will serve as a link for the playwright, which will first have to sign up to the portal, fill up the form, follow the steps indicated to later get access and share their respective writings and information that they wish to share to make his proposal more striking.

Paz emphasized that this new tool for Panamanian playwrights "arises from the need to Visibilize local playwrights, because there's a low record of them and as well as poets, novelists among others have their pages, those dedicated to writing plays have that opportunity to be known as well."

National producers as foreigners interested in the works that will be exhibited in this digital display will be able to find information as an overview of the work, the number of characters, and his suggested stage, as well as his contact with his writer.

Paz also noted that, with regard to the rights of works, they have been advised by the National Board of Copyright of MiCultura to comply with its regulations and at the same time suggested to playwrights that they know the benefits of registering their works.
