There are things that seem impossible… until they happen.

‘Ensaio sobre a Lucidez’ (Essay on Lucidity), by Companhia do Chapitô, brings José Saramago’s unsettling question to the stage: what happens when a people decide to say ‘no’ by casting a blank vote?

A political satire that begins with humour and ends where we least expect it — at the crossroads of democracy, power and authoritarianism.
