CASA Festival - August Rehearsed Reading
CASA Latin American Theatre Festival presents the 4th in our monthly series of rehearsed readings of classic latin American plays in English.

This month we feature our Brazilian piece with "Forgive Me for You Betraying Me" by the enormously respected journalist and playwright Nelson Rodrigues.

About the play:

Glorinha, a middle-class 15 year old girl, always thought her mother had killed herself, driving her father insane as result. After her friend presents her with the opportunity to work in a high-class brothel, Glorinha finds herself embroiled in a seedy world of seedy congressmen and sleazy pimps. When her uncle and guardian discovers what she's been up to, he decides to finally tell her the truth about her parents.

As ever, Nelson Rodrigues treats us to another slice of sexual and familial dysfunction straight from the heart of Brazil.

About Nelson Rodgrigues:

Nelson Falcão Rodrigues (born in Recife Northeast of Brazil August 23, 1912  December 21, 1980) was a Brazilian playwright, journalist and novelist. In 1943, he helped usher in a new era in Brazilian theater with his play Vestido de Noiva (The Wedding Dress), considered revolutionary for the complex exploration of its characters' psychology and its use of colloquial dialog. He went on to write many other seminal plays and today is widely regarded as Brazil's greatest playwright.

The reading will be followed by a short discussion on the work by the translator.

Tickets are free but need to be reserved in advance.
