Audience Company

In 2026, Companhia de Espectadores (Audience Company) begins a new phase. After several seasons immersed in specific works and performances, the project is now broadening its horizons and transforming itself into an informal school of dramaturgical analysis.

More than just a space for debate about specific plays, Companhia de Espectadores (Audience Company) proposes itself as a laboratory for thinking about the performing arts, where one experiments, questions and learns to read the scene in its multiple dimensions — body, text, image, sound, space, time and relationship with the audience. Through meetings and conversations, the group investigates the mechanisms that make a creation happen: how a dramaturgy is constructed, what choices underpin a composition, how the spectator participates in the meaning of the show.

We continue to see, hear and discuss — but also to think about the performing arts as language and as a living gesture. More than an academic training, it aims to be a community of critical learning — a meeting place between those who make and those who see, between theory and practice, between analysis and creation — open to all who wish to look at the scene from the inside out.
