Synopsis: Where did blackface begin? When does blackface end? Blackface is a solo show, written and directed by Marco Mendonça, a musical lecture, between stand-up and fantasy, between satire and physical theatre, between burlesque and documentary. Starting from personal experiences and the history of blackface as a racist theatrical practice, from its roots in the USA to the Portuguese cases, Marco Mendonça seeks the limits of what can, or cannot, be represented on a stage. Considering the extensive library of events in which this racist practice was used to portray Black people as inferior members of Portuguese society, is it possible to believe that racism does not exist in Portugal? After having produced his second creation, Reparations Baby!, premiered in 2025, the D. Maria II now hosts a return to the stage of Marco Mendonça's first show as a creator. Conversation with artists on 30 May. Accessibility: Session with Portuguese Sign Language interpretation and audio description on 30 May.

Show original (Portuguese)

Sinopse Onde começou o blackface? Quando termina o blackface? Blackface é um espetáculo a solo, escrito e encenado por Marco Mendonça, uma conferência musical, entre o stand up e a fantasia, entre a sátira e o teatro físico, entre o burlesco e o documental. Partindo de experiências pessoais e da história do blackface como prática teatral racista , desde as suas raízes nos EUA aos casos portugueses , , Marco Mendonça procura os limites do que pode, ou não, ser representado num palco. Considerando a extensa biblioteca de eventos em que esta prática racista foi usada para retratar pessoas negras como membros inferiores da sociedade portuguesa, será possível achar que não existe racismo em Portugal? Após ter produzido a sua segunda criação, Reparations Baby!, estreado em 2025, o D. Maria II acolhe agora um regresso aos palcos do primeiro espetáculo, enquanto criador, de Marco Mendonça. Conversa com artistas no dia 30 de maio. Acessibilidade Sessão com interpretação em Língua Gestual Portuguesa e com audiodescrição no dia 30 de maio.
