HEQET* by Companhia AbsurdA

open rehearsal – CED – Apr 7th to 17h – 2024

(residency – mar 4th to 10th + Apr 1st to 7th)

*project selected by the Trengo 24 Creation Grant

In a chimerical space devoid of reality, the heqets, characters originating from the 10 plagues of Egypt and sent into the world to destroy it, have evolved to the present day, creating a kind of ‘mafia’ dedicated to going against the purpose of their creation and healing the planet Earth, which is on the verge of destruction. Their activities are carried out covertly through a strategy of infiltration into the human world with the aim of altering its future. Who is the real plague?
