By Heart and Three fingers below the knee

The Kennedy Center
2700 F Street, NW Washington

The Portuguese theater company Mundo Perfeito marks its United States debut at the IBERIAN SUITE: global arts remix festival with a double bill: By Heart and Three fingers below the knee. In the interactive By Heart, several audience members will be invited to memorize a poem written in English ... and the show won't end until they're able to recite all of its lines by memory. The historically inspired Three fingers below the knee is drawn from reports written by theater inspectors during the nearly 50 years that Portugal was ruled under a fascist regime, and is performed in Portuguese with projected English translations.
