Between the 25th and 26st meetings for Reading Theatre with Science, we’re holding an extra session at TUMO on 11 June at 4:30pm. Unlike usual, this reading won’t be public and will only be attended by ‘Tumonauts’ between the ages of 12 and 18.
The theatre play to be read is ‘Love and Information‘, by Caryl Churchill, translated to Portuguese as part of the Collaborative Translation Project, a team for which we are always recruiting more people. As always, the original text, as well as the aforementioned translation, are available for consultation or loan at the Performing Arts and Science Documentation Centre. Anyone interested in taking part, either by reading or just watching, simply has to sign up via the following email address: ler@marioneteatro.com
SYNOPSIS
Someone sneezes. Someone can’t get a signal. Someone shares a secret. Someone won’t answer the door. Someone put an elephant on the stairs. Someone’s not ready to talk. Someone is her brother’s mother. Someone hates irrational numbers. Someone told the police. Someone got a message from the traffic light. Someone’s never felt like this before. In this fast-moving kaleidoscope, more than a hundred characters try to make sense of what they know.
