PERFORMING ARTS
TEKNÉ is a theatrical creation in which the search for the show lies in its assembly and technical preparation. Taking as its starting point the imagery of Thomas Bernhard’s ‘The Theater Maker’, the show is a device that proposes the stripping down of the experience of theater making, where the preparation of scenic elements – light, objects, text, sound, costumes, acting, staging – becomes the object of dialogue between theater makers.
SYNOPSIS
“Technician 1: What are we doing here?
has anything to do with the fire and the couple’s plot?”
Technician 2: This is more like a technical rider being assembled.
That’s it in a nutshell.”
TEKNÉ is a theater creation in which a company does the technical staging of a show called “O Bananal”.
