Life happens when we are completely unaware. There is nothing written. No recipe, no trick. Jacinto Lucas Pires, "Escrever, Falar"
Two men sitting on a wooden bench. They are nowhere, and we don't know how they got there. Covered by their raincoats, they share their stories like someone writing a script. They travel over and over again in various narratives that they themselves shape, just as time shapes them and makes them grow and acquire a more physical dimension as they speak and write a shared destiny.
"Escrever, Falar" (Writing, Speaking) is a play written by Jacinto Lucas Pires and directed by Simão do Vale Africano. A play that immerses us in a fusion between the real and the imaginary, with an almost comic physicality that ruptures the drama of the lives of these two men.
