talvez… Monsanto
Event
“talvez … Monsanto” returns to the stage that witnessed its birth. A theatre-music-word show that interweaves a plurality of materials, turning it into a singularity. The traditional music from Beira Alta and fado, the countryside and the city, timbrel and Portuguese guitar, religious chants and Ruy Belo’s poetry, granite and wind, ancient and modern, childhood and death, the wheel and the cross. We've never seen or heard such tunes and. How does all this happen? Perhaps the keyword that will allow us access to “talvez … Monsanto” is “cohabitation”, the art of transforming strangeness into affinity, the art of bringing the root of one thing into contact with the root of another. “talvez … Monsanto” is perhaps Ricardo Pais’ most important ethical and aesthetic statement, a place so sensuous and austere, so ready to bring silence and beauty into the world.
