A Substância do Amor e Outras Crónicas
Amar uma mulher sem veneno é como jogar à roleta russa com uma pistola de fulminantes. A obscura força que leva um sujeito a lançar-se, preso a uma frágil lona, em direcção ao abismo azul, é a mesma que o precipita, indefeso e nu, para os braços de uma mulher. Quando o louva-a-deus encontra a sua deusa e esta lhe diz «vem, vou-te comer», o infeliz sabe que aquilo não é uma metáfora. E, seguro de que depois do amor será servido ao jantar, persigna-se e vai. É o que nós fazemos.
The Art of Cultural Exchange
Can cultural exchange be understood as a mutual act of translation? Or are elements of a country’s cultural identity inevitably lost in the act of exchange? Brazil and Great Britain, although unlikely collaborators, have shared an artistic dialogue that can be traced back some 500 years. This publication, arising from the namesake research project funded by the United Kingdom’s Arts and Humanities Research Council, seeks to understand and raise awareness of the present practices of cultural exchange between Brazil and Great Britain in relation to their historical legacy. Presenting five case studies and eight position papers, this research-based project investigates how artists interpret...

After In-Yer-Face Theatre
This book revisits In-Yer-Face theatre, an explosive, energetic theatrical movement from the 1990s that introduced the world to playwrights Sarah Kane, Martin McDonagh, Mark Ravenhill, Jez Butterworth, and many others. Split into three sections the book re-examines the era, considers the movement’s influence on international theatre, and considers its lasting effects on contemporary British theatre. The first section offers new readings on works from that time period (Antony Neilson and Mark Ravenhill) as well as challenges myths created by the Royal Court Theatre about the its involvement with In-Yer-Face theatre. The second section discusses the influence of In-Yer-Face on Portuguese, Russian and Australian theater, while the final section discusses the legacy of In-Yer-Face writers as well as their influences on more recent playwrights, including chapters on Philip Ridley, Sarah Kane, Joe Penhall, Martin Crimp, Dennis Kelly, and Verbatim Drama.
