O Tempo Avança Por Sílabas, the title of one of João Luís Barreto Guimarães’ books and a poem, is a creation for an actress. In this proposal, which we hope will bring the audience closer together, the word will be ‘served’ in a simple way, as in any ordinary event. It’s the banal that interests us, the everyday, everything that inspires us in the author’s poetry. Using an object present on stage, a kind of miniature scenography, the actress moves pieces around, building places, small worlds, where stories take place that are transversal to everyone. In this movement, which is always diverse, we travel through various emotions, returning to an unrepeatable beginning, contributing to the passage of time.
