International theatrical productions and performances

Overview

Theatrical productions and dramatic works are being showcased across various regions, including the Alentejo coast in Portugal and Madeira.

In the Alentejo region, performances include ‘A Barca dos Loucos’, a production exploring themes of exclusion and freedom, and ‘Maiúscula’, which focuses on the reflections of an aging actress.

In Madeira, the Teatro Municipal Baltazar Dias is presenting ‘Trilogia da Morte’, a collection of three plays by Filipe Gouveia that draws parallels between historical events—such as the 1521 bubonic plague and the 1940 arrival of refugees—and contemporary issues like the COVID-19 pandemic and the Ukrainian refugee crisis. Additionally, a contemporary reimagining of Shakespeare’s Macbeth, titled ‘Lady Macbeth – Página 1606 do Livro’, is being staged in Salvador, Brazil, to explore the humanity and complexity of the character.
