Accessible Session w/ LGP (Portuguese Sign Language) - Valentina Carvalho
In “Má Educação – Peça em 3 Rounds”, the stage turns into a boxing ring.
A piano accompanies the fights, just like a referee that converses with the combatants and also with the music that the audience hears. On stage, a ballerina, an actress and a child, from three different generations, that come into play and dispute: who teaches what to whom? Who prepares whom and for what future? Who accepts to leave and make way for the one that arrives?
A mirror of our Education: the tension between teachers and students, between the school that exists and the one that we want. A show where theatre and dance search for the revolution from whence the future is born.
