Abstract
El teatro, entendido como una actividad profesional, supone la consecución de ciertos
bienes para el espectador y la sociedad. Dentro de esta perspectiva, hay una discusión
acerca de cuáles son estos bienes que debería ofrecer el teatro de manera esencial para ser
considerado bueno. Con respecto a los que asumen la postura de que el arte tiene como
uno de sus fines el mejorar la sociedad, se problematiza la ética de esta voluntad al poder
asociarse con prácticas paternalistas. Por ello, en este ensayo se pretende analizar y
esclarecer la función del artista, el discurso (o no) de su obra y su relación con la sociedad;
en específico, del artista teatral. Por medio de este análisis, se logra llegar a una
conclusión acerca de la actitud que debe tomar el artista al momento de realizar su
actividad teatral que logre, efectivamente, generar los bienes constituyentes de su
ejercicio profesional que incluyen el entretener, producir un goce estético, y generar una
“transformación positiva” en el espectador. Dicha actitud se aleja del paternalismo para
optar por una posición dialógica y política que tome en cuenta la libertad, dignidad y
voluntad de pensamiento del espectador, quien es considerado como un ser activo en la
interpretación del discurso y en la consecución de los bienes del mismo.

For this reason, this essay aims to analyze and clarify the role of the artist, the discourse (or not) of his work and his relationship with society; specifically, by the theatrical artist. Through this analysis, it is possible to reach a conclusion about the attitude that the artist must take when carrying out his theatrical activity that effectively manages to generate the constituent goods of his professional practice that include entertaining, producing aesthetic enjoyment , and generate a "positive transformation" in the viewer. This attitude moves away from paternalism to opt for a dialogical and political position that takes into account the freedom, dignity and will of thought of the spectator, who is considered to be an active being in the interpretation of the discourse and in the achievement of its goods.
