Dramaturgical criticism of the play “Last Judgement” by de José de Jesús Martínez (1929-1991), a postwar Panamanian writer and playwright. From the hermeneutic paradigm and with a qualitative methodology, the dramatic and spectacular text of the play was approached to investigate through the content analysis: How does Martínez, in the given circumstances of his play, “Last Judgement”, relates the categories of Life, Death and Religious beliefs in the context of Catholicism against the Sartrean existentialism? The dramatic text of “Last Judgement” proposes that man just has transcendence during his concrete existence; before life and after to passing away, exists nothingness.
