The piece follows a man adrift in the middle of the ocean, faced with a simple yet decisive choice: remain where he is or risk everything to change his course.
O Tamanho das Coisas is on stage at Teatro Variedades, in Lisbon, from 7 to 17 May (Wednesday to Saturday at 8pm; Sunday at 4pm).
Performed in Portuguese, the piece follows a man adrift in the middle of the ocean, faced with a simple yet decisive choice: remain where he is or risk everything to change his course.
From this starting point, the performance unfolds as both a physical and inner journey, where the perception of reality shifts and the scale of the world becomes unstable.
Moving between the concrete and the imagined, it brings together moments of challenge, adaptation and resistance, revealing how each person measures their limits and confronts their fears.
Performed by Paulo Azevedo, this is a story about decision, risk and the measure of things in life.
Duration: 70 minutes.
Age rating: 14+.
With Portuguese Sign Language (LGP) interpretation in video throughout the performance.
