Description
Foresta Rossa is a two-poet show featuring spoken poetry, audiovisual and live painting. The performance is created specifically for a festival location in Lousa (Portugal) that was impacted by forest fires. 
The show aims to address the issue of environmental emergency and its effects on people, in the face of the increasing threat of global warming.
The performance consists of a pre-structured dialogue, with improvisational parts that respond to the unique context of the performance location. 
The site-specific element of the show involves visits to the location to collect memories from victims and analyze artifacts of forest fires.

This work was produced with the financial assistance of the European Union. The views expressed herein can in no way be taken to reflect the official opinion of the European Union.

‘A Tale Of…’ brings together poets and musicians to demonstrate the power and beauty of the muse. 
The centerpiece of this evening is ‘A Tale of Two’, a 30-min multimedia poetry dialogue and meditation on love, life, art. It is a collaboration between two poets Marina Kazakova (BE) and Sara Mano (IT). They take a road through the favourite verses of great poets – alchemists from different centuries, as sparkles. You just need to listen – and we will hear the innermost secrets, learn about the muses of Sappho, Francesco Petrarca, Dante Alighieri, Johann Wolfgang Goethe, Marina Tsvetaeva, Igor Severyanin, Joseph Brodsky. The answers to all our questions are stored in encrypted messages of poets, they contain the whole palette of human feelings – love and grief, resentment and forgiveness, sin and temptation. You can overcome whole distances without fear, and stop 5 millimetres from your fate – this is the discovery they want to share in their new performance through the voices of famous poets and their own.
