REGISTRATION: Adult Age

We are not sure anymore for how long we had the opportunity to work with a group of adults from the Castelo Branco region.

With them we found that now we also leave the world to arrive at the body, when we used to travel in the opposite direction. And that all this is a long love story that has just begun.

/SYNOPSIS

Sitting here with you is in itself an act of registration. I look at you. You look at me. I wait and you wait with me. Sometimes our eyes meet and it seems the world has ceased to exist to make way for something else that we still did not know. And all this is a long love story that has just begun. The history we build now, in this moment, when I sit with you, when I wait with you, when we look at each other, finally. And being here, now, is all that matters in this moment.

And in the waiting time that we share we begin to ask ourselves: who, after all, is the one before us? What has she to tell us that we have not heard? That we don’t know? How can your words, your body, meet with my words and my body? (pause) This is where theatre begins.

When we start to ask, as in the beginning, as in the time when the stones had a history and every day was a new beginning. Perhaps this is the face of desire. Here and now our face. Our face everywhere and anywhere. Going lost. Emptying itself. So that it can later be filled with intensity. And the light slowly disappears to make way for darkness. It is in the dark that light can again be light. It is in the dark that light can again be light. It is in the dark that light can again be light.
