Nôt
Marlene Monteiro Freitas

On one side, a wall of people; on the other, a wall of stones. As though “caught between the sword and the wall”, a stage. In this enchanted valley, a miniature spectacle, NÔT (from The Thousand and One Nights), is crafted to fit into vast spaces. It takes the shape of a fable, the result of the accumulation of many tales – some of love, others of war, some of journeys, others of beasts. These are weapon-tales that ensure the survival of their narrator, in a duel between imagination and a petrified heart. These are lament-tales that honour the absent, in a duel between life and death, prison and freedom, vice and virtue, reality and desire.
