LAISSEZ FAIRE | LEONARDO GARIBALDI / OS POSSESSOS

Theatre 12€

Friday 9 October · until 11 Oct

A theatre production by Os Possessos, inspired by Büchner's Woyzeck, following Jorge, a single father trapped in a ruthless corporate system.

Synopsis Accessibility: Performance with Portuguese Sign Language interpretation on October 11 at 5pm. LEX is a company that survives in a strict hierarchical system, where the strongest, or at least the smartest, wins, but where they are all part of the family. They are all collaborators, but the market is free to do whatever it wants. It is in this company that Jorge, a single father, works. Deluded with false hopes of a better future, he subserviently accepts all the demands of his superiors. He is pushed into an innovative productivity program to prove his commitment and debt to the company. (It will be worth it!) The effort will be rewarded, and hope is the last to die. The person dies first, and only then does hope die. "Os Possessos [...] traverse voices, time, and space."
