I'd rather not do it
What is a revolution?
Astronomically, it is the period of time that celestial bodies take to travel around their orbit. For mechanics, it is the complete turn of the shaft of a motor or any part in rotary motion. In a figurative sense, it is said to be an act of resistance, usually violent, against authority or the established order. But it could also be the clerk Bartleby, created by Herman Melville, who in 1853 chose not to write. This decision, disruptive and peaceful, disrupted the entire Wall Street of the 19th century.
After all, what use is a revolution to us?

Confederation
Confederação is a theatrical research collective founded in Oporto in 2010. Its work focuses in four areas: creation, research, publishing and training. Its starting point is proximity shows, with its own dramaturgy based on popular forms of theater, and it develops research projects with a strong connection between theater and moving images.
