This article undertakes a semiologic analysis of the various cultural referents (artistic, religious) inserted into the script in order to show how the concept of “inter-textual collage” underpins the poetry of the play, while it constitutes Garcia Wehbi’s main tool to destabilise the dominant symbolic order.  A partir del mito antiguo de Tiestes y haciendo pie en la tragedia senecana del siglo I D.C. la puesta que García Wehbi monta en el Teatro Nacional Cervantes deconstruye ciertos aspectos clave de la historia occidental cristiana, entre ellos, el sistema patriarcal. Este artículo se propone analizar, desde una perspectiva semiológica, la abundancia de citas de índole cultural (artística, religiosa, etc.) insertas en los diferentes lenguajes escénicos, para validar la idea de “collage intertextual” como principio constructivo de su poética y herramienta principal para desestabilizar el ordenamiento simbólico dominante.  application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/telondefondo/article/view/5486 10.34096/tdf.n28.5486 spa Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/telondefondo/article/view/5486/4922 telondefondo.
