Solo Performing Arts
Obrigada por terem vindo
Cine-Teatro Garrett, Sala Principal (Main Room)
Synopsis
A theater show that reflects on theater-making. Do actors really want to say those words? Why do we watch shows? Are my ideas ideas that I once had but have forgotten? Is it true that, in theatre, we are always looking for excuses to stop doing theatre? These are the questions we will try to answer while pretending we are not answering questions.
