The 22nd instalment of Reading Theatre with Science takes place on 20 November (6:00 pm), at Marionet(Rua Carlos Seixas, 277).
The text to be read is “Secret life of humans“, by David Byrne, translated as part of the Projeto de Tradução Colaborativa, 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
Here’s a brief synopsis of the play: «In 1949, scientist and mathematician Dr. Jacob Bronowski installs a hidden, locked room in his house. Fifty years later, his grandson discovers the secrets contained in the room, unearthing echoes from across six million years of human history. “Secret Life os Humans” was first seen during a sell-out, award-winning run at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 2007. It had its Lindon Premiere at New Diorama in April 2018, ahead of transferring Off-Brodway.»
