Thriving in disorder, "Info Maniac" is a guerrilla manual for modern times, an apology for being-in-relationship, a show that considers everything in order to be able to give and occupy space and time. In secret, we know that we know nothing, and that Everything knows everything about us. Teatro Praga
In 2005, André e. Teodósio and J. M. Vieira Mendes met to make a show they called "Super Gorila". If, in that show in 2005, an artist asked the spectators to help him blow everything up (space, history, himself, principles, means and ends), in 2021 the same artist is only interested in an unconditional dismantling. "Info Maníaco" is a reminiscence in times of Plague, a jaunt that goes from the histrions of Ancient Rome performing to the sound of a flute to the quantum knowledge of our present. A one-man-show with a human rethinking his own figurative entity in a day that contains all days and all times. An actor on stage both speaks about himself, revealing everything, and reveals himself to be everything but himself! For that, he uses the repertoire of his experiences: poems, choreographies, recipes, stories and magic potions, as well as a kind of retrospective glossary of Teatro Praga's work.
