This August, João Pedro Leal, Eduardo Molina and Marco Mendonça are working at Espaço Alkantara on a new performance, as part of our Summer Hours programme.

This is the last day of democracy. Its demise marks the end of freedom of speech and thought. This is the last show you will ever see. We’ll have to make good use of time. We’re not interested in dramatising our tragic and inevitable end. We want it to be a happy occasion, a farewell party for a place we will never return to, where politics and fiction, the future and now, become the prototype for a dystopian society.
