In Tucumán, a northwestern province of Argentina, in 1982, it is identified the premiere of two adaptations of the Greco-Latin dramatic repertoire: Twins by Plautus and Electra by Sophocles. These shows directly inscribe the local scene in the classical tradition for the first time and develop appropriation strategies to assimilate the foreign text in the new context. These experiences update in the provincial cultural memory the legacy of Antiquity and stimulate the productivity of the later theatrical activity around the classical hypotext.
