Culturgest

I’m OK…

This is why I don’t usually shave… but it’s alright, we’re gonna be alright.
WE’RE GONNA BE ALRIGHT is a theatre performance by Cão Solteiro & André Godinho
september 7 – 10 at Culturgest

Working on the different features that audiences look for in blockbusters, Cão Solteiro & André Godinho continue their research into the relationship between theatre and cinema, making a show about the most spectacular component of films: the special effects. Here the effects are not placed at the service of narrative, they replace it, indefinitely postponing it and ceasing to be special. Just as in early cinema, which was a fairground attraction, what we see here is the spectacle for its own sake, the effect without a cause, a montage of attractions. We’re Gonna Be Alright is a blockbusted with sex, blood and violence.

First the play, now the film.

Day For Night Cao Solteiro & Andre GodinhoIn February I presented the show DAY FOR NIGHT, with theatre company Cão Solteiro, where we turned the stage of Culturgest into a film set. In this performance the audience could see the shooting of the film: FIM DA FITA/ THE END OF THE REEL.

Now you can see the film. November 28th, 23h30 at Cinema Ideal in Lisbon, integrated in Festival Temps d’Images.
