Paula Diogo imagined the cycle ABOUT REMEMBERING AND FORGETTING to talk about how memory operates in our lives. After PAISAGEM was presented in March 2021 at the Teatro Municipal do Porto, now comes A ESTAÇÃO DE OUTONO. This creation brings together Alexander Kelly (Third Angel), Cláudia Gaiolas (TMV) and Paula Diogo in the third moment that closes the cycle that began in 2018 with the show of the same name presented at the Maria Matos Theatre. Three shows about what we choose to remember or forget, or what we are capable of remembering and forgetting.
A ESTAÇÃO DE OUTONO is a play for two voices.
Two strangers meet regularly in non-places and retrace the steps that lead to someone’s disappearance. As memory aids they only have a collection of photos taken in abandoned spaces that have lost their functionality and been taken over by nature. The creation projects a fantasy in which the actors have no body and the relationship with the spectators is essentially made through sound.
The presentations of this creation at the CCB’s Blackbox as part of Temps d’ Images will be the first of a work that will continue to develop in 2022.
