It is said that the English playwright Noel Coward had a habit of telling his players: “acts naturally and not stumble on the furniture.” Andrew and. Theodosius element of Teatro Praga, recovers this quote to counter what the guide and journalist Anabela Mota Ribeiro in the design of Being program at Home “. We act artificially and stumbled on the furniture on purpose” That is, in the vast menu which appears the “occupation” that the two thought to São Luiz Theatre in Lisbon, during this end-of-week, there is an almost endless succession of interpellations to the public inspired by the broad concept of “home”. Bogged down in furniture was even mandatory.
The house is not theirs, of course, but it’s like. To be home equivalent, perhaps, to access to the heads of Anabela and Andrew in particular dicionarização making the word “home”. A word that can mean either the place of family, of love and protection, as architectural space, shared life, animals, plants, foundations, underground, workplace, “things beyond just eating, sleeping and sitting in the room” , mark out. Basically, everything that they were remembering and accumulated without brakes since they had carte blanche from St. Louis to fill every corner of the theater. Only the preparatory technical meetings is that they realized the magnitude of this “act of love and sharing” for which they were drawing more and more accomplices. “There was an answer so generous and so overwhelming to our idea that all in all, we have 170 people involved, from artists and participants the coaching staff,” amazes the journalist.
So from the 10′s morning to midnight Saturday and Sunday from classes in which António Guerreiro, Elisa Ferreira, Nuno Artur Silva, Rui Cardoso Martins and Rui Tavares exchange by and for kids the house of ideas, economy, crazy, words and Europe respectively until the concert in which Sérgio Godinho (accompanied by Filipe Raposo) revisit his work thinking as it relates to domestic life, the theater spaces will host an unbroken varied programs tend free (only the evening’s performances will have a reduced price) . “We want this wide open space, a space where fit all – dogs, children, people who are not Aryans bodies or according to the efficacy that society demands,” Theodosius comments
Home. open doors
Presenting itself as hosts, available to receive or clean a glass of wine to take the path of ground, Anabela and Andrew want, above all, take care of multiple offers that may “be the engine to a question on the feeling of home.” Not a “Take there and receive this world worm weighs a lot on your back,” she argues. He adds that “the program aims to not try to confirm what people already come to see.”
Also because if the scheduled performances of Monica Calle, Platform 285, Teatro Praga, Single Dog or John Fiadeiro may not be surprise to some public, there is a good deal of unexpected in written love letters or drawn as the spectator (“a fictional love, a real love or self-esteem,” suggests Theodosius) by writers or artists, in children’s workshops Farm of John and Catherine Sobral and the guided tours of the theater by the singer Gisela John, the director of St. Louis Aida Tavares or the real estate agent Catia Nunes. About what will happen in each of the moments of Being At Home, Andrew and Anabela know little in concrete. After the calls, withdrew from the scene.
Imperative is opening the doors to a public that, for economic reasons (not having to pay the shows) or family (not having anyone to leave the kids ), is seen usually prevented from attending a play as One Way Street , Monica Calle, or Old Age , the Teatro Praga. Or unable to attend thematic conversations as What makes a house is a home? (Miguel Vale de Almeida, Tatiana Salem Levy and Miguel Lobo Antunes, moderation Joan Gorjão Henriques [journalist PUBLIC]) or The Policy and the world table (Bárbara Reis [director of PUBLIC], José António Pinto Ribeiro and João Constâncio, moderation Paul Pena [journalist PUBLIC]). The idea is always the free movement of persons in this space that Theodosius calls “a non-profit center.” “We thought a lot in money [so it is free] imagined when this schedule,” says Mota Ribeiro, “because it is important to reach people and that, when they return to their homes, can go a little desinquietadas.”
