PERFORMANCE | Pessoas by Chapito | Praça da Espanha | FREE

In a way, we’re all just pessoas.
Because “pessoa” is just “person” in Portuguese.
Then again, there was only one Pessoa.
And — even if you haven’t read a single word or even heard the name — if you’ve been in Lisbon for more than a day, then you’ve seen his face.
Which may be why some local circus kids decided to personalize the image of Pessoa, as well as some lesser internationally known wordsmitshs, and share it with people.
The result is Pessoas.

From the organizers:
“All are presented with the same image, so characteristic of Fernando Pessoa, each claiming one of the heteronyms that marked the work of this poet. Ricardo Reis, Alberto Caeiro, Álvaro de Campos and Fernando Pessoa … All the same and all so different, in this performance by the Chapitô.”
