Letícia Rodrigues
Gorda has a precise objective: to lose 116 grams. Each performance becomes a peculiar training session where theatre meets workout. She runs, calculates, improvises and revisits fragments of memory and theory. What begins as a physical task slowly unfolds into a performative experiment about discipline, control and the absurd demands placed on bodies – especially women's bodies. As the audience watches the body pushed to its limits, the question shifts: is she trying to lose weight or trying to understand what it means to perform? The show is part of São Paulo Showcase.
