Since the premiere in May 2022, we have presented this project in various contexts and for different audiences. A project with two versions – in Portuguese and English – performed by Joana Pupo and Jaime Mears. In each place we have found the will and the space to talk about delicate topics such as depression, suicide, love, family and how everyone goes through (or knows someone who does) mental health issues and how important it is to talk about them.
It’s a play that talks about these issues with humour and empathy and is suitable for audiences aged 14 and over.
We’ll always keep new performance dates updated on the project page > Todas as Coisas Extraordinárias e Every Brilliant Thing.
