While traveling around the world with a backpack on his back, young Roberto meets António, a sick man on the top of a mountain who is struggling with his inability to commit suicide. However, he ends up using Roberto as an unwitting weapon for suicide.
This is the starting point of the plot of the play “De Passagem”, which will be performed at the Teatro do Bairro in Lisbon from January 10 to February 4. It is “a comedy about economics, about giving and receiving, love, buying and selling, theft and fraud, the exchange of things for things and the ideas of things and these for others.”
De Passagem, with text and dramaturgy by Luisa Costa Gomes and direction by António Pires, features interpretations by Francisco Vistas, João Barbosa, Marcelo Urgueghe, Ricardo Ibeo and Sandra Santos. “De Passagem” will also be presented at the Municipal Forum of Alcochete, February 8, at the Circo de Braga Theater, from February 15 to 16, and at the Recreios da Amadora, on February 25.
