Voices Collective Company

Inspired by the book Novas Cartas Portuguesas, this original play tells the story of three Portuguese women who challenged a dictatorship with words, courage and conviction. Maria Teresa Horta, Maria Isabel Barreno and Maria Velho da Costa risked everything for freedom of expression, sparking a trial that echoed worldwide. Voices Collective Company brings their story to life through theatre, poetry and contemporary performance, exploring resistance, friendship and the ongoing struggle for women’s voices to be heard. Performed in English, this bold, timely production reflects on artistic freedom, feminist courage and the power of language across generations.
