Monologue ‘I Talk to You with Love and Wrath’ of Branca Messina wins a new season from 9 August

With feminist text and online format, the play can be watched for free.

The online show “I speak to you with love and wrath” wins a new season in august, in the days 9, 16, 23 and 30 (Mondays), at 9:00 pm. Or alone, with acting of White Messina (“The division” and “Genesis”) and direction of Fernanda Bond (“the girl and the pot”), chronicles the encounter of a woman and a man through the ages – during a video call. the woman speaks, the man listens. The piece can be watched for free by YouTube, with voluntary contribution option.

“We're back for another season, inspired by the reactions we've seen from our audiences since the premiere, especially the young. Our idea is to always dialogue with these audiences”, explains White Messina. From your home, through your cell phone camera, Branca's character invites a male character to hear her stories, from the female point of view on topics such as motherhood, love and subjectivity. “The thing about being live makes each experience unique”, guarantees the actress and screenwriter from Rio de Janeiro.

“We always wanted the show to reach people who are now in training to be more aware men and women”, highlights the director Fernanda Bond, who shares the dramaturgy with Branca. The show's text works with myths and historical archetypal figures about the role of women since antiquity. “Through these narratives, it is interesting to convey precisely this notion that history repeats itself: either we do it differently or we'll continue in the same place, although three thousand years have passed”, concludes.

Excerpt:

“and tell me, and says lightly... And with all certainty that I will understand... That I need to understand, after all we are a family, we are all here to serve our lord, to our patriarch, to our hero. But I don't understand... Because I'm a witch, i'm mistress of beasts and i don't accept this place, the same way when… When Lilith I didn't accept this place, when Eva I didn't accept not knowing either, I didn't conform, because I don't conform, I don't want this place for myself, nor for any other woman.”
