Nu Meio Comvida
Bruno Cochat and Filipa Francisco
On stage since 1996, NU MEIO is a satire of a typically-Portuguese couple who seeks refuge in Fado and idle gossip. The Man, Firmino, stakes out a territory centre stage from which the two characters cannot escape. The Woman, Mila, obsessively attempts to climb, grab at, suffocate this mountain of a man. The dialogue between the two characters is like a soap opera, full of clichés, of words explaining meetings and failed encounters, of shrill laughs and church songs turned operettas. The performers use recent events in the country/city/occasion in which NU MEIO is performed as a base for their dialogue. To complete these dialogues, the authors collect love stories by interviewing couples of different generations (where the show is taking place).
