The actor and director Luis Miguel Cintra will continue to stage and direct the Teatro da Cornucopia, having just fired the stage as an actor, clarified Tuesday the Cornucopia.
The question generated If after Cintra have interrupted the applause at the end of the last performance of Hamlet in Cornucopia, on Saturday to read a short text honoring the talent of the young artist Guilherme Gomes, while announcing no longer have health conditions to continue to play.
“Today was certainly the last day I played this house, which was the home of this company, my, our house 40 years ago “said the actor, who has publicly explained a few months ago who suffered from Parkinson’s disease, the same disease that affected her father, the great linguist and philologist Luís Lindley Cintra. “I have specific health problems that I leave no longer present myself before you and be on the scene with others, which is what we like to do” also said the text, such as PUBLIC already had reported, Luis Miguel Cintra read on Saturday
If the end of his speech was dedicated to the praise of William Gomes, the 22-year-old actor who plays Hamlet in this epic staging of Shakespeare’s tragedy -. the show, which refers to the translation Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen, lasts four hours – Luis Miguel Cintra also enumerated its main accomplices in this adventure more than 40 years has been the Cornucopia, and suggested that the current financial constraints put at risk the future of the company, signs have led some to assume, wrongly, that the actor if he were to dismiss the project.
Moreover, even his acting career, now has an announced end, it is not over. The Cornucopia is preparing to submit Hamlet in Almada, and Cintra, part of the cast of the play, will again take the stage as an actor. And is expected to participate as well, this year, a new film by Sergio Tréfaut.
In the text he read in Cornucopia, which he calls “an old to the theater company,” recalls that shares direction with a scenographer “the best there is,” Cristina Reis, and also refers to the technicians of the house, but only recalls the names of the actors, listing those who are no longer with the company, as Luís Lima Barreto and José Manuel Mendes, others came later, as Teresa Rinderpest, Marques D’Arede or Alberto Quaresma, yet Duarte Guimarães and Dinis Gomes – “almost two children I adopted in my heart, I saw literally grow” – double that sum Tiago Matias, an ‘intermittent most faithful “in the house.
But the most rave, reserving them for Guilherme Gomes, welcoming to see appear, at the very moment that feels forced to leave the stage, an actor he considers” one case (…) absolutely outstanding “
In an intervention that took by surprise not only assistance, but their own employees, Luis Miguel Cintra almost hinted he saw in the young performer a successor potential:.” What William has given us in this very difficult role of Hamlet, the pleasure I had in helping you build it, revealed qualities of such a rare and surprising way, so came upon the interpretation of the text that we were doing, adding to test to test and show in show with ideas from you, which makes this my farewell day these boards on a feast day. “
He ended by thanking the interpreter who had just moments before giving body and voice Hamlet: “Thank you, William. It is with an immense trust in you, and great joy that I introduce you to these gentlemen as a new major actor “.
