JOGOS DE OBEDIÊNCIA

“The problem is not disobedience, the problem is obedience.” – Howard Zinn
This project is a game. A game/experience that uses the stage as a board of humanity. We start with explaining the rules, there’s joy, there’s freedom. A game is a game. The audience is also a player. Everything that happens has already happened in another time or place. Each actor/player can only say text that he or she has already said on stage. The scenery, lights and costumes are from other shows. There is an independent agent, an entity with no obvious category whom we have to obey. We call it the Organizer. Obeying him is part of the rules, but he doesn’t threaten anyone. There’s joy, there’s freedom.
