The plagiarists - Porto Alegre, Brazil

Directed by Jezebel de Carli, Guadalupe Casal, Marcelo Restori and Mário De Balente
After the success at the last Porto Alegre em Cena, with a sold out capacity and an extra session, "Os Plagiarios - a Fictional Adulteration About Nelson Rodrigues" returns to the spotlight.

The play brings together the groups that won the 2011 Braskem Award, directed by Guadalupe Casal (Sarcáustico), Jezebel de Carli (Santa Estação), Mário de Balenti (Caixa do Elefante) and Marcelo Réstori (Falos & Stercus) and in the cast, 18 actors. In the present, a man is run over while a reporter seeks out Nelson Rodrigues for an interview about the first montage of his most famous text, when he is surprised by the news of the writer's death. In an indefinite time, a theater group performs a play that changes during the rehearsals. And in 1942, after an inexpressive debut as an author, young Nelson divides himself between the newsroom of the newspaper he works and the sleepless dawns, concluding his most audacious work, a psychological drama about a woman who mixes facts, memories and hallucinations at a table of surgery.
