Micro-Contos Para Poucos de Cada Vez

About

Micro-Contos Para Poucos de Cada Vez is a live reading performance designed for a small group of spectators at a time. Luís Fernandes, who conceived and performs it, gives voice to humorous micro-stories from a vast selection of authors. What will be read is not predetermined. The reader chooses the sequence of texts by instinct, chance, opportunity or lottery, and decides it in real time with the complicity of the audience. In ten minutes, non-sense, irony, sarcasm, black humour and also some tenderness pass by. Each text is a risk: it can provoke silence as much as laughter, and some people laugh before others or only much later. The session takes place in a scenic space created on-site, in an intimate setting, and never repeats in the same way. It is part of the Semente Festival in Mamarrosa, which brings together poetry, music, painting and nature and is aimed at the whole family. The creation premiered in July 2026 at Tradidanças.
