PARTNER / CO-PRESENTATION TEMPO – TEATRO MUNICIPAL DE PORTIMÃO
Target Audience: Youths from 13 up and general audience

Face to face with their audience, a group of youths proposes to speak about what it means, or what they think it means to be a “free person”. With a future that no longer promises the recognition of the old rules of a dying social system, they stand for a future they intend to claim with all their freedom.
Departing from Pablo Fidalgo Lareo’s original text, these teenagers want to swallow the world, to chew and to regurgitate, so that they can give it back to their audience, but this regurgitation process involves the development of a poison in the shape of words, created in order to think the entropic social and political system in which we all live.
