Sinopse
After the election of Cavaco Silva in 1987 by an absolute majority of the votes, the country enters a new era. The money coming from Brussels enables the consumption society to grow fast. The quality of life of the middle class stabilises, and it gets used to new living standards. For many those were their best years—that’s when they came of age, built their most absolute certainties, wrote fiery love poems to weekly muses, fought against tuition fees, and demonstrated day in, day out.
Teatro Experimental do Porto (TEP) is the oldest theatre company in Portugal and a forerunner of modern theatre. Its first performance premiered in 1953 under the artistic direction of António Pedro. In 2012, Gonçalo Amorim, theatre director in residence since 2010, took on the role of artistic director.
