About the performance:
“Cassandra, we have a problem” is a solo site-specific performance of a woman inside a bathroom. The bathroom – intimate, dirty and uncomfortable environment – becomes the space of invitation to the listening of a foreign (Brazilian) body that crosses the events of Cassandra’s myth in an attempt to discuss the theme of credibility and the right to ‘have a voice’. “Cassandra, we have a problem” is a work that invites the instability of the performer’s body, that through the irony of the text questioned herself: how is it possible to be heard?
